First Winter Goat Camp out
#20
Woke up sometime in September because it sounded like Coffee Bean was tap dancing outside my tent. Shining the light out past him displayed why. A large coyote was moving in for the buffet. Yelling, and/or the light, failed to discourage him, so I had to leave the nice warm bag, grab my lead-based dissuader tool, and head out to do business. Thankfully, he decided that the vittles were probably better elsewhere, and departed. That was both a blessing... and a curse. Was he really gone? Or just biding his time, planning on coming around from another direction. End result, there was no sleep for quite a while, but apparently he was really gone. After having had a nose-to-nose with a cougar in 2017, let's just say that I am a teeny bit antsy about what can happen at night after the activity ceases. After the cougar, I try to get the boys highlined-tied as close as possible in order to hear when things are going south.
