This was an exciting hunt for us as we rarely see this behavior during the daylight hours and we are ecstatic that we were able to capture it on camera!

If I may what you gusy encounter was 3 coyote busting you. Those where warning barks and yep they where not going to come any closer. Also by calling more each time you gave them a pin point referance to what they where seeing. I don't know what they pegged on you, but they knew you where there. Could have been the movement of gunman and camera their way. Family group coyote calling a great time of year for sure.
You might think of an E caller to move the sound away from your location at times. Or not calling anymore and allow that twirly bird Mojo thing do it's job for awhile. Sometimes silance can be the best answer.
Nice video thanks for sharing.

Well, the thing to remember is that the whole dynamic changes when you have a response such as shown in this video. Yes, you can continue to use a distress and they may be willing to stand their ground based on their reaction to the threat level. But, this behavior calls for completely different tactics, be it coyote vocalizations, or even complete silence, which can be just as effective, versus an incorrect coyote vocalization. Bottom line, you have been busted, but all is not lost, since they are still out there and have not run away. By the way, if you are getting a response similar to this, at night, I would say it is due to incorrect light work, or perhaps the moon is behind you and they detect movement? edit: oops, I see silence has already been suggested! Works surprisingly well. edit: on the other hand, can't argue with success. Good job.
