Lately we hear screams in the night. Coyote live in the nature preserve close by and they hunt, probably in packs. I tell the kids it's dogs, trying to hide how the sounds disturb me.
This afternoon we went to the backyard to play with the snow. I saw a hole just 2 meters from the deck. The hole was full with hair and pieces of skin. No blood. I couldn't believe that the screams from last night came actually from our backyard!
I think it was a rabbit. Now I come to think of, because there was no blood, maybe the rabbit had escaped, or the coyote are very efficient. Anyway, it didn't look pleasant. I had to scoop the rests so that the kids didn't end up near or on the spot of crime. Yuck!
