During our severe drought all animals who found a home on Antelope Island were affected by it because of lack of water and food supply.
There are over forty freshwater springs on island to support the island's wild life but many of them dried up.
This morning I met a coyote while I was driving along the Causeway. Autumn is almost arrived and it brought nice fall colors. The coyote was resting among desert plants enjoying the cool morning.
The coyote's rest was short.
The Great Salt Lake is salty and when water in the Great Salt Lake evaporates it leaves the salt behind. The coyote is standing on the dry salty ground that is white and solid.
The coyote is walking his way in the salty dry desert.
Will we recover from our extreme drought eventually? I hope we will but it will take several good winters with plenty of snow. We get our water from the snowy mountains.
Generally, life is good.
the fine furry.
ReplyDeleteHe looks a little disoriented. Seen in a hurry, it looks like a fox. Beautiful autumn colors.
