[QUOTE="Okanogan, post: 2269882, member: 90397"] I tend to wake up early and today was cool in central Washington so I had the windows open. Long before the sun crested the ridge behind the house, I hear what sounds like a couple of fawn bawling. I look out the window and easily spot a doe and two fawns running flat out a couple hundred yards away. I pulled out the binoculars and quickly picked out about 8 distressed deer (does and fawns) pinned up near a fence across the canyon north of my place. I suspect coyote so I go to the safe and pull out the Valkyrie. By the time I can get geared up the fawn bawling has quit and most of the deer have left except for one doe and fawn that keep hanging around. I'm 90% sure I know what happened so I hang around with a spotting scope and the Valkyrie. A case of 250 yd 80.5 grain lead poisoning occurs a little later. I personally am kind of a live and let live kind of guy concerning coyotes but I certainly enjoy the deer in my yard a whole lot more than whatever mice the coyotes are killing out in the hills. I'm interested in what our forum thinks of coyotes, and how proactive one should be in dealing with them. [/QUOTE]
