Recently, the Laurelhurst Blog has posted several times about coyote sightings, especially near the Center for Urban Horticulture (3501 NE 41st Street).
Here is another neighbor's account of another sighting just a few days ago:
On the morning of March 21, I was down running with my dogs in the Arboretum doing the loop when I saw these guys. I've heard tell that coyotes were there, but was skeptical until now. Of course not another person came by so I could point them out. I've sent you pictures.
Here are other coyote sightings from neighbors published in past posts:
On January 26, I just saw a coyote running south on 42nd Avenue NE turning west on NE Surber Drive heading towards Yesler swamp about 7pm last night. I had a clear look at it it was very definitely a coyote. My wife reminded me about us hearing a coyote howling a few days ago after hearing a siren. No photos as it was too dark. I am certain it is a coyote. It was very skinny with long legs, maybe 30 lbs. I got the impression it is quite young. Light brown with long nose and pointed ears. My wife and I heard it ululating in response to a siren a few days ago. It sounded like it was just south of the Urban Horticulture Field House.

On January 8th, I saw a Red Fox that ran across my path this morning on the main trail through the Union Bay Forest. I was on my bike and he went across the trail in a shot. No time to get out my phone.
Here is information on living with urban coyotes.
