Coyote Attack Through Window

This coyote had been hanging around this location recuperating from a leg injury. It had been resting against a ceiling to floor window and attacked and tried to bite me through the window as I took this extreme close up. He/she then wandered off, probably with a sore nose.

Thanks for the nice comments, the window was safety glass and while I wasn't worried about it breaking it was quite scary to be a few inches away from that snarling, biting, angry coyote trying to bite the camera/me. It appeared to be having a difficult time with the whole concept of "glass".

Yikes, thank goodness you had glass between you. Very scary to think if you hadn't. Great shot Gordon.
