Coyote and deer
8:45 am. 67 degrees. Smoky. North side of Mt. Diablo.
Coyote underneath the gateway oak that straddles the trail leading to the dry pond. Investigating the little woodpile house built near the north end. Now he’s back on the ridge line south above the trail. Looks like a harrier is flying up from the canyon to take a look. Makes a couple passes around the coyote and is off. And the coyote is down into deer canyon to investigate the area where the harrier was hunting.
1:30 pm. 93 degrees. Three springs trail head. No mammal sightings.
5:10 pm. 92 degrees. Smoky. North side of Mt. Diablo. Red tailed hawk.
Sunset. 80 degrees. Almost full moon. Feral cat.
7:17. 78 degrees. Male deer spotted just over the ridge before it descends into oak canyon not far from the hawk oak
