We call him, The Hessian and it was his turn to go first. As it worked out, I had a couple of curious cows just to the right of me that were close to moving into my FOV so I could not shoot safely. Funny thing, we both identified a coyote amongst the cattle, but we saw two different coyotes. He was originally sighting in on one quite far out.
The coyote I was watching and that he eventually shot was just going through the motions of mousing or bugging there along with the cattle. I had not seen coyotes working the ground in the cattle before and found it interesting to watch.
