  2. Lovely as always. (The only time I have ever heard a coyote was when I was in Lamesa, Texas in 2006 and friends and I had just done a Beltane ritual. As if in response - pretty magickal!)

  3. I heard them one moonlit night a distance away from my friend's house...it was magical. Here, our resident dogs howl like wolves. I like to pretend it's wolf howls I'm listening to, instead of golden retrievers the size of walruses:)
