I photographed this Baby Coyote at the Sequoyah National Wildlife Refuge in Oklahoma. I didn’t see the Mom Coyote, but that doesn’t mean she wasn’t around.
I first saw this Baby Coyote on Saturday, and it was near the start of the auto tour road. I found it again Sunday about 100 yards from the first location. It would go into the cornfield when I got near it.

The young coyotes were near the Sandtown parking area at the Sequoyah National Wildlife Refuge in Oklahoma. I was standing outside my pickup hand-holding my camera and lens. I was outside my pickup because I saw that the Coyotes were going to walk out onto the road behind my pickup. They both walked past me within 8 to 10 feet. One turned and went back into the field, the other continued walking the road.

While I was watching and photographing a Whitetail Doe and her Fawn at the Sequoyah National Wildlife Refuge in Oklahoma, a pair of Coyotes appeared. The Coyotes were on the opposite side of the slough from the deer but they crossed over to the same side. The female Coyote went into the thick vegetation while the male stayed in the water and walked toward the deer. The Coyotes were walking parallel to each other. When the Coyotes got within a few steps of the Deer the Doe became alarmed and fled with the Fawn. The Coyotes didn’t pursue the Deer. I continued watching the male Coyote wading in the water for several yards before disappearing out of sight.
