Stumbled upon this young Coyote running along the road ahead of my truck. He/she seemed unconcerned about my presence and ran along the road for quite awhile before finally jumping into the woods. Part of my job involves me checking Tree Swallow boxes. This young guy spotted me approaching. The fact that he is at the top of the box indicates that the nestlings are about 20 days old and ready to leave the box at any moment. Its usually wise not to open the box at this stage as the young will many times get scared and jump out of the box prematurely.
