365Caws is now in its 16th year of publication. If I am unable to post daily, I hope readers who love the natural world and fiberarts will seize those days to read the older material. Remember that this has been my journey as well, so you may find errors in my identifications of plants. I have tried to correct them as I discover them. Likewise, I have refined fiberarts techniques and have adjusted recipes, so search by tags to find the most current information. And thank you for following me!

Avast, Ye Who Sail Lake St. Clair!
Day 261: 'Tis a word t' th' wise I'll be givin' ye: dinna be a'ter molestin' th' Sundews o' Lake St. Clair fer they be guarded by th' most ferociousest o' pirates in th' 'ole o' th' Pacific Northwest. 'Tis Cap'n Morgan Corbye 'erse'f wot pertects them, an' ye never knows whereat she might be layin' by. Comes an' goes like th' mist, they says, an' disguises 'erse'f t' be tooken fer a common sailor, but mind ye well! Should she come alongside ye, ye'd best hove to an' be prepared t' show ye've no pilfered plants aboard. St. Clair is deep waters, matey, an' stained wi' th' blood o' many wot tried t' lift one o' them sticky little devils.
