Good Morning Coyote!

Good Morning Peeps!

I hope everyone is doing well! I know its been a while since I was on here typing away.....sorry life has been sooo busy.....Today however.....

You Ever wake up with a coyote by your back door trying to break into one of your chicken houses?!

Well today was the day for that! I awoke between 6:30 - 7:00 am to the sound of constant barking!

yip yip yip pause.....yip yip yip........annoying in the early morn for sure!!!!

Now my "ranch dog" barks and etc....but she is still what I consider a puppy compared to a coyote .
Her name is peanut and then our other dog Jack is old and done with barking at coyotes and etc...

Anyways....

So this Coyote just keep circling the chicken house round and round
as I am walking out of the house with the gun.

No I don't walk out side with a Gun all the time....but when its that early and the barking wont stop....
you might as well grab the gun just in case.......


Well I walk out see what is going on and get ready to shoot.....now I am a really not the best shot when I have been rudely woken up ....plus I really did not want to pop one of my chickens instead of the coyote......

One Shot right away, I  did not even close the door behind me.......missed......another shot....

Gun was jammed!!! Ugh well atleast I "scared" the coyote of for now.....


Maybe better luck next time.....but I think next time I will be a bit more prepared! ;)

Just a bit of real Oklahoma Country Life for ya there....

Happy Tuesday! Hope Yall have a Great Day!!! :)
