Some cat

This pretty little thing showed herself to us through our deck door and then busied herself stalking voles. Or so I imagine since she went to where I've been seeing voles this week. It was duckish and I imagine too that the crepuscular light was an advantage to her.

She was sitting at the edge of our driveway when she realised I was looking at her through the screened window upstairs. And she looked up. The combination of dusk and the screen makes for some visual artefacts.

We don't know her, but I expect she belongs to one of our near neighbours. She is not the top predator in the neighbourhood — we have seen foxes in recent weeks, and neighbours have seen coyotes.
