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.

Slow Process
Day 261 (bonus post): If you're following the unfurling of my Sarracenia's blossom and were wondering why I haven't posted another picture...well, this is one of the slowest openings I've ever witnessed in a plant. Now that the petals have separated, I can see something in the center which looks rather like an orange with the peel removed. I have no idea what comes next, and am resisting the temptation to look it up on line because I want it to surprise me.
