There was what golfers said was a coyote on the Belmont golf course this morning at about 9:00 a.m.

It was in a big hurry running to the field on the other side of the golf course from the Lynnhaven Postal center.

I had my dog in tow at the postal station and thankfully the coyote just kept running and paid no attention to my dog's one bark at it.

I had thought it was a lost dog when I first saw it crossing Churchill Downs as it looked very much like a big boned lanky German Shepard which had not been fed very well.

I did get a good look at it though but not enough to tell if it had the coyote scimitar shaped teeth. I suppose I could defintely tell you it was a coyote though.

The golfers would have gotten a much longer view of it though as it was running across the golf course.

I have only seen a coyote once before in the Villages and this was late at night on this same golf course but near Morven Parkway near the Pimilco Rec Center.
