last night..1.5 miles from camp ,exiting a corner doing an imitation of '' fast freddie spencer ''....saw a family of coyotes about 250' in front of me...there was at least 5 and maybe up to 7 !!they went on both side of the road to hide...but one started to '' road race '' in front of me...i tried to get closer as much as possible..

gave myself a ''swing ''' while holding camera with right hand and driving with the left one !!

not the greatest pics...but at least you can see a bit !!!

Spectacular week end it was JG, thanks for sharing your pictures once more, lake is getting cold to swim in and the due lifting from the mountain side is a sure sign of seasons change. Spider man is missing in the web.

Keep up the good work

hi jg !!

thx !!...i always think to climb a wood pile ,but always too steep !!!there will a be a lot more in a few weeks.they cut woods to build roads then come back in a few weeks.

if my memory still good,partridge hunting should start next week!!

moose hunting started last week on duniere reserve and park matane !!

forgot,2 miles after i saw partridges...saw a coyote on the road for about 20 ''...i took too much time to switch lenses !!
