Lonely? (The coyote of course). I've had the same family of coyotes traversing my home in the hills for over a decade. They will come through sometimes, lay in the yard sometimes and pass by at others. They are gorgeous creatures and we are in their backyards/territories so it doesn't bother me at all. Perhaps the lone coyote is curious about your animals. Perhaps he's looking for lunch..... Either way I would keep the puppy (at least) away from him and carry a whistle and walking stick with me while walking in his areas. Great photos could be had since he's coming so close.
