Watching the World

One of Hector’s joys is to sit on a sunny day at the screen door to the ditch and watch and smell the outdoors. It’s an excellent vantage point because, despite its low altitude – at the bottom of a rectangular concrete basin, an observant cat can see all sorts of wildlife, especially birds. We have quite a variety coming by the Cosy Apartment’s windows; it helps if one scatters kernels of food on the lawn beyond the ditch. Here Hector is intent on the flight of a gull passing overhead.
