| Galesburg, Illinois, June 6, 2011 |
The coyote blended in well with the corn stalks. I thought it was a dog, but when I noticed it walking in a nearly-perfect straight line--dogs, God love 'em, generally frolic aimlessly--I knew I had spotted a wild canine.
It's the fourth time I've seen a coyote. The first two instances occurred in national parks, the other time is was in Skokie, Illinois' Harms Woods.
Monday was my first visit to Galesburg. What a greeting!
UPDATE June 8: Jay Redfern of the Galesburg Mail-Register writes about my coyote sighting and more right here.

I grew up in Galesburg, and my father still lives there.
Great place!
