I won’t have guessed they eat berries or cherries. They need to pick up the rabbit harvest end of things.

A lot easier to gorge on rose hips that don't move than rabbits that do.I used to bird watch at a natural area in Kent that has a paved trail lined with Nootka rose. During prime rose hip season (late fall/early winter) the trail is loaded with coyote scat entirely comprised of rose hips. If you’ve ever peeled apart a rose hip you know how they are mostly seed inside with a small flesh to seed ratio. It’s always surprised me that coyotes would choose to gorge on these, especially given the fact that there is a large natural area there with plenty of rabbit/rodents most likely available.

We used to see them up on the hill just east of there, but that was over half a century ago now. Who knows why they were in the cloverleaf though, must’ve been something they like to feed on that drew them in there.I saw a small group of deer in an unusual place yesterday; in the little grassy shrubby patch of ground contained within the SE corner of the I-405/SR167/Rainer Ave S cloverleaf. There may have been an adult and 1-2 young. I didn't get a real good look nor have time to stop for photos, but it sure seemed like an odd spot for them.
