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.

Pacific Bleeding-Heart, Dicentra Formosa
Day 206: The charming shape of Pacific Bleeding-Heart's pillow-puff blossoms endears it to young and old alike. This plant invokes an aura of faeries and fantasy, as if at any moment, a tiny smiling face and a pair of gossamer wings might appear from within its lacy foliage. The stems break easily, so mind where you tread If you go hunting for the wee folk in a glade of Bleeding-Heart.
