Following on from the previous blog, "MARCH BREAK" (March 9, 2025), EmCee (MC for Mini Coyote), is not a coyote who will leave any stone or rather shrub unturned.
Following her ears (and probably her nose as well), she began digging at the base of a small dried bush. It didn't take long before she popped up with "something", mixed in with a few dried grasses.
From Photo #5 & Photo #6, there appears to be a gray tail extending from MC's mouth. My best guess is it is the appendage of perhaps a newborn pocket gopher or some type of rodent.
Hopefully it was enough to temporarily satisfy a hunger and provide some energy. MC's head almost seems a size larger (Photo #4) than her body, a sign perhaps there is much more growing to happen before she reaches complete maturity. And then MC won't be so small any more.
