The Fake Out

Cayote? Sequim near the Olympic Game Farm

My friend and I were hiking this trail when up ahead we saw an animal hiding behind this tree.

We stopped and watched (for about 10 minutes). It looked kind of like a cayote, but a little smaller. A fox? So I put on my long lens 400mm to get a better look…

It was a log, with ears, tail, and fur from the grain on the log.

Would you have been faked out too?
