How many of yall have had birds coming on a string only to call a minute later with no response?  You sit there thinking what in the world went wrong, they didn't see me.

I personally had this happen to me twice in the last week.  Two different pieces of property 20 miles apart.  In both instances I saw coyotes either heading towards the birds gobbling or heading from where the gobbling was towards me. 

Needless to say, it shuts the birds down for the morning.  How many of yall have had this happen to you?

I have been needing a new excuse I have about wore out my standard ones.
Really though this is happening more and more. In sandy country when you find hen tracks it is not unusual to find coyote tracks on top of them I know they frequent the same country but I suspect coyotes may be trailing hens to their nest as well as coming to the call.

I had been hearing these local bogators complaining about coyotes.  I was thinking to myself, whatever...

Trust me, I saw it with my own eyes.  It took that for me to believe it.  And no I am not using it as an excuse.  That's hunting.

It only happened twice in about 30 mornings of hunting this year, I can live with that.  I just wonder how many times it has happened and I didn't see them and didn't know what went wrong. 

And I agree about them trailing hens.  All the places I hunt are sand roads.  I have seen some sign indicating that.

You are right it is a good, creative excuse.
