Snow cover was not 100% though so something could have slipped through without leaving any sign and coyotes are not that unusual here. Saw Whet Owls are not common on our property, in 30+ years I have never heard one here and I have only one sighting perhaps coincidental but also mid winter. > > Kevin Lantz > > Sent from Mail [1] for Windows 10 > > FROM: James Hirtle [2] > SENT: February 6, 2020 12:18 AM > TO: naturens@chebucto.ns.ca [3] > SUBJECT: Re: [NatureNS] Unknown call > > Hi all: > > The call is actually that of a coyote. The reason I know this is that I arrived home in LaHave at 23:00 this evening and heard the exact same call at close range. I then witnessed two coyotes running at full speed making this call past the house along the School Road and they continued down the road at full gallop towards Fort Point still making the call. I've heard the coyotes in the distance here, but this is the first ones that I've actually seen in LaHave. I think I'll now be very careful about going to the shed at night for the garbage. > > James R.

Unfortunately it was quite distant and the only recording I was able to get is very noisy. I have cleaned it up some but since that often affects quality I have posted both it and an amplified but otherwise unaltered version in the same clip. I can't think what else it might be but it is not quite like anything I have found online. > > The call can be heard here https://www.xeno-canto.org/524494 [4] > > Kevin Lantz > > Front Centre > > Sent from Mail [5] for Windows 10 Links: ------ [1] https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=550986 [2] mailto:jrhbirder@hotmail.com [3] mailto:naturens@chebucto.ns.ca [4] https://www.xeno-canto.org/524494 [5] https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=550986 --=_0502976c59247ad492dd82a7bc1cf1db Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable Content-Type: text/html; charset=UTF-8 <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN"> <html><body> <p>That coyote could have been half a km. or more from you!</p> <p>On 09 Feb 2020 17:40, Kevin Lantz wrote:</p> <blockquote type=3D"cite" style=3D"padding-left:5px; border-left:#1010ff 2p= x solid; margin-left:5px; width:100%"><!-- html ignored --><!-- head ignore= d --><!-- meta ignored --><!-- meta ignored --> <div class=3D"WordSection1"> <p class=3D"MsoNormal"><span>Thanks everyone for the responses, I have been= keeping a close eye/ear out but haven’t heard the call again and hav= e not seen any tracks that would confirm coyote.
