Coyote?

Last night, late, after all the guests had gone home, I was in the bedroom getting ready for bed. I pulled up the blind to open the window and looked across the street. And there, staring at me was a coyote. It was sitting in front of Alex's car like it was guarding it. I obviously disturbed it because if coyote looks could kill, I'd be dead. And then it got up and trotted down the street, like it was just the most normal thing ever that a coyote would be in the middle of a city street.
