I managed to capture a Coyote hunting voles yesterday!

Very nice shots and a beautiful animal. We had one behind our house yesterday trying to mess with two Sandhill Cranes. The yote lost that battle.

Thank you! They are actually good-looking animals. There was a Great Blue Heron closely watching this Coyote, but there didn't seem to be any interest on the Coyote's part.

Hunting these cute little things - shame on them! Bank Voles should be protected.

So cute. Very nice shot, Alan.

The Small Indian Mongoose is not as impressive as the MSH411's photos but it's all I had the chance to see in local botanical garden (and on Hawaii you have no big choice ).

 

[MSH411]

Thanks ISv but those images of the Mongoose are very cool. Great looking critter and excellent images!

MSH411 and ISv,

Very nice shots, guys. Keep posting.

I think this may fit into the Miscellaneous category. Bumped into these guys on a night hike. I think they saw me long before I noticed them.....squeaky little guys.

Thanks for "...excellent images"! Otherwise I don't like the Mongoose - on the other Islands where they still have a ground nesting endemics (Nene!) they are real danger for the eggs and chicks. On Oahu they are problem for the Albatross and Wedge-tailed Shearwater but after the South-West colony was fenced* they are no treat there. The recently established North-East colony is vulnerable because it's not fenced!
*fenced - special fence that preserves the territory from rats, feral cats and dogs and mongoose.
Concerning the Bats: I had very little success with them in Europe - only these photos (taken with Nikon D7200 x 200-500mm zoom and activated it's build-on flashlight). Kind of little bit noisy photos because I'm so lazy to search for the RAW files in the back-ups. At that time (2019) there was no DxO PL 6

Very nice shots, ISv. A very strange but useful animal.

Thanks Click! All bats are very strange...

So great to see! Thanks for sharing. I think the video looks to have enough quality for a prestigious documentary! Aren't we lucky that we can make wonderful video for less than 10,000 and that probably would have cost five or ten times that twenty and more years ago?

That must have been amazing to see!
