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.

The Guy With The Racing Stripes
Day 177: Several species of sparrow come to my feeders during the summer months, notably Song Sparrows (back), the guys with the racing stripes (White-Crowned Sparrows, front), and although they haven't shown up yet, Golden-Crowned Sparrows as well. Today seemed to be bath day, every puddle hosting a bird or two. The juncoes and jays were also active, as were half a dozen Spotted Towhees and much to my delight, a couple of Rufous Hummingbird females. Time to lay in a good supply of seed!
