compost queen

I wanted to get a photo of Maya sunbathing on top of the compost heap.  I think that in the late fall it must be one of the warmest seats in the yard.  Not to mention, it smells great and provides a good place to watch for the Barky Dog Next Door.

But as soon as I snapped one photo, I saw Maya's ear swivel around.  You can tell everything from Maya's ears, and as you can see above, one of them was acknowledging that I'd just stepped into the yard.  Seconds later, Maya followed where her ear had pointed (although please note that the other ear is still keeping tabs on the Barky Dog Next Door).

And then we were together again.  Too bad I did not have time to get the camera focused properly, but as far as Maya is concerned, together again is happy ending enough.
