Crows giving away sneaky Coyote

I was calling last week on a friend's farm where he had told me he'd been seeing a couple dogs. About 20 minutes in I noticed crows coming in and hovering/circling pretty low about 100 yards from where I was sitting. I knew there was a coyote coming in, but I couldn't see him. About 5 minutes later wiley popped up out of the draw infront of me about 200 yards out and then started trotting down wind. I was already laying prone waiting, so I whistled a couple times until he stopped to look back. That's when the 6 Creed went to work, and that was that dogs last mistake. Thank you crows 🤣

So I was doing a stand yesterday morning trying a spot I'd seen some coyotes. About 5 minutes into the calling I see a couple of crows come in and start circling pretty high above me and around the general vicinity. Then after 5 more minutes the crows suddenly fly down super low over some sage brush out a couple hundred yards in front of me and make a few passes at just 5 feet or so off the ground. I'm watching them do this for a few seconds, then I see a coyote trotting through the brush. He moved into a slight clearing where he could see where my call was and just stood still for a bit. The whole time the crows are buzzing around and sort of dive bombing him. Was thinking back to my last trip out and on the stand where I got my last one there were crows around too. Not sure if there's a pattern to this or if it is a common thing, but I guess from now on I'll be keeping an eye on any crows that come in while I'm calling - might be a coyote sneaking in they'll give away!
Common thing. Cats and coyotes
