Coyote in Sycamore Grove Park - Livermore, CA (Cellphone Photos)

Today, on the 5th February 2025, my mom and I went for on a walk in Sycamore Grove Park in Livermore, CA. I saw a coyote and I took some photos of it with my phone through my binoculars. The binoculars I used are the Nocs Provisions Standard Issue 10x25 Waterproof Binoculars (Product Link - Affiliate Link). I hope you enjoy viewing my photos!

Message from the Photographer: I am still dealing with long COVID. I have finished processing the RAWs and have uploaded the photos from November and December, however I have not finished sorting them yet. Despite having more energy after being given low dose Naltrexone (experimental use) at the Stanford Long COVID Clinic, it has not touched my brain fog and other symptoms (some symptoms seem to be worse since I am now more active). I realize it is now February 2025, but it might still be sometime before I can post those photos.
