I successfully eradicated clover from my garden, laboured for years to remove the persistent Oriental poppies which tried to crush out all other forms of life. New generations of unwanted marigolds and lobelia were easily eliminated, but not so the resolute violas. They will not rest until they have achieved world domination, these happy-faced invaders, of that I am most firmly confident.
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.
