OK - this happened last week but I think it is worth sharing. I wish I had a picture but I don't. I was walking my dog Harpo in the flower field in Montara when a coyote jumped up out of the tall grass. Harpo took off in pursuit. I was terrified that one of them was going to get hurt but there was no stopping Harpo who is a chaser by nature. They coyote ran Harpo up and down the field at high speed. Then he started running in ever tighter circles, reversed direction many times and then stopped. Harpo stopped. The coyote started and stopped several times before resuming the circles. They ran for at least 10 minutes before the coyote ducked into the brush around the creek and disappeared. I really think he was playing with Harpo.
There was another coyote in the field that day but that one showed no interest in the play.
