Early morning, walking the dog

Walking Buddy, the spoiled dog, on these early spring morning is a pleasure.
The quiet, the spring green, the little surprises along the way.

There are killdeer in Oklahoma that come to the airport to nest in the rocks. They are so funny.

Buddy looks adorable.

Oh! How brave of Mama and Papa Killdeer! I hope their eggs make it to chicks. Do the coyotes ever bother you or advance towards you and Buddy?
I have only seen them once on a morning run in our neighborhood...and we are much more suburban9at least by the photos, I think we are).
