Wild garden vistor snacks on crabapples
This content is syndicated via RSS from the blog: Country Gardener
Coyote foraging for crabapple berriesAround supper time this evening, my husband looked out the window, and said, "Isn't that a coyote?" Yes, and there it was in our crabapple orchard, looking for a snack. We even saw it pick them right out of the tree. (My dog does this on occasion too.) Our crabapple trees have persistent fruit, and the birds have been harvesting them of late, but I often wondered who else snacked out there because my dog, Toby, is often very keen to go under the crabs to check out the scents. I got out the camera, and was able to take some pictures from the living room window. When the coyote moved behind a tree, I went outside to see if I could get closer, which I did manage without being noticed. But by that time Toby had seen the coyote and was going nuts, barking up a storm. He was indoors, but loud enough for the coyote to hear. Then, the coyote spotted me and took off through the neighboring tree farm to the woods. So coyotes eat crabapples.
