In honor of Super Tuesday, I'm checking in on the coyote poll. You know about the coyote, right? In early January, folks reported a little white-brown-gold number loping through Discovery Park, too brazenly for it's own good. Eventually, there were reports the coyote stalked walkers with small dogs, skittered across porches at nearby Navy housing, and severely injured a cat. This is the sort of behavior that can get an animal killed.

Sweat is trickling down your brow now, your thighs and calves are warm and working as they're intended, your mind wandering with your eye; a green and white ferry leaves Coleman Dock, a red and white Coast Guard cutter steams into Elliott Bay, seagulls squawk. A friendly female jogger smiles as she passes coming the other way, you wipe your forehead with your wrist and begin to round Duwamish Head, breathing rhythmically, feeling the sun's glow, smelling salt air. Into full view strides the Olympics, the twin peaks of The Brothers most prominent, their shoulders cloaked in fading snow.

Another world comes out during the extreme ebb tides of spring and summer on Puget Sound, when geoducks poke their siphons into the air, purple sea stars cling to the undersides of rocks and tiny green shrimp flit about tide pools.
This is the perfect time to pull on rubber boots and explore the fascinating margin between land and sea, and it helps if you have someone along who knows his or her way around a beach, like the two naturalists who led a recent shoreline walk at Discovery Park in Seattle.

Discovery Park is the largest and justifiably one of the most popular parks in Seattle, its 534 acres encompassing seven miles of trails that offer good hiking any time of year.
