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.

Secret Falls Rainbow
Day 135: "Secret Falls" doesn't really have a name, although its stream shows up on the topo map if you know where to look. You'll find it less than fifty feet from the road if you know where to stop, but otherwise you could drive right by without any clue to tell you where this ribbon of water is tucked away. It's at its best in the months of winter and spring, and variously may present the aspect of a freshet or of bizarre figures of ice. Light enters this niche in the forest for only a few minutes of the day. If you're lucky, you may even catch a rainbow.
