This young lady had Ohop Valley staked out and was patrolling from telephone pole to telephone pole, keeping her sharp eyes peeled for unsuspecting mice. With Ohop Creek running at capacity, many of the little rodents who make their homes in the streambank have taken to the fields. I suspect Ms. Falco went home with a full tummy at sunset.
365Caws is now in its 14th year of publication, and was originally intended to end after 365 days. It has sometimes been difficult for me to find new material, particularly during the winter months, but now as I enter my own twilight years, I cannot guarantee that I will be able to provide daily posts. It is my hope that along the way I may have inspired someone to a greater curiosity about the natural world. If so, I can rest, content in the knowledge that my work here has been done.
