First one & coyote we have tons of coyotes out here.

my guess is another coyote.

I just bought a Browning "Dark Ops" HD trailcam. Going to set it out and leave it for a work week in the coast range, hopefully tomorrow if I can get a hall pass. Hopefully it wont get stolen because it will be on public land, grant-it I'll go a distance off trail from a random dead end forest road but still. I bought a cable lock for it but nothing a bolt cutter couldn’t handle.... (I've found them cut in similar places off trail). Makes me nervous, a $150 gamble if I lose it. :cry:

I applied some advanced image-enhancement filters in Photoshop... definitely a coyote.

Yup, clearly a coyote.

Thanks for that link Forester. Checked my cam again today, lots of Elk, Deer & Coyotes again. still waiting for the Bear which I know are here because my back garden is full of their scat or the Bobcat which my Neighbor caught on camera last year.
