Got a little coyote experiment underway......I had my pear trees start dropping fruit a couple weeks ago and it didn't take long for the yotes to show up. From the sounds of it there are 5 or 6 of them....maybe more.....It's not the most ideal spot to do the road experiment I was wanting to do but it's a start on just seeing how they react.....I .made up two large signs about like the campaign signs you see on the side of the road. Both are painted neon yellow with a big dog and "X" across the middle. I'll take a pic later. I put them out right where the yotes are coming into the orchard hitting the first pear to start dropping. So far it's been out 3 days and I haven't got a single pic. I walk the dogs through this area about daily so they were already smelling me in the area. I'm not sure if the signs are spooking them but it's a promising start. At least one didnt walk out the first night and pee on the sign or take a poop in front of the camera. We'll see how long that lasts

Well....I'm by no means drawing any definitive conclusions from one little test but it is what it is.......the coyotes have completely disappeared for some reason. I haven't heard them, got pics of them, and Otis has stopped barking at them at night. It may just be coincidence or something else that triggered the change....I'm not sure.....but I think its well worth continuing to test this idea out and see what happens. I feel pretty sure that it wasn't simply my presence and scent that did it because I had been taking the dogs by there every day and letting them sniff around. There's still pears dropping like crazy too.....To be continued
