This is the 15th year of continuous daily publication for 365Caws. All things considered, it's likely it will be the last year as it is becoming increasingly difficult for me to find interesting material. However, I hope that I may have inspired someone to a greater curiosity about the natural world with my natural history posts, or encouraged a novice weaver or needleworker. If so, I've done what I set out to do.

How To Waste A Morning
Day 331: I knew I should have gone blackberry picking two weeks ago. Two and a half hours and over a hundred driving miles later, this was all I had to show for my pains. My best spots had either been picked clean or were ruined by rain. Once I'd put them through the food mill, I had just over a cup of juice, a long way from the six cups I needed for a batch of jam. Blackberries...Himalayan or Evergreen...are the kudzu of the Pacific Northwest. What the heck is going on here?
