While watching some bird feeders in Arizona we were surprised when all the birds took off...then this Coati came out from under some bushes and took over the feeder, he must have been used to people, we got very close..
wish I'd gotten all of his tail though

Very cool sighting.. Since they are primarily nocturnal this was fortunate. I would have liked a bit better eye contact and the image seems to need a bit of contrast. The image does tell a story!
