This week we have encountered coyotes daily between the paved hill at the end of SB Shores and the main butterfly grove in Ellwood. These encounters have been during the day (11am-12:00pm) as well as at dusk (5:45-6:45pm). We have seen anything from a single coyote hunting in the field, to a pair in the main grove, as well as a pack of 5. All look healthy in size and have been weary of us humans once sensed.
