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.

Kicking Up Again - Alder Lake Fire
Day 345: As predicted, the Alder Lake Fire seems to be kicking up again on both ends, most spectacularly on the east end where it appears to have come down a drainage to meet the 74 Road. That said, the InciWeb site has still not been updated (the last post was September 9), and the PIOs have been pulled from duty, taking their interpretive materials with them. I would hope that with an increase in fire behaviour, there would be some public communication soon, if only to mollify people who will likely assume that the fire has gone out of control. To the best of my knowledge, that is not the case. As the fire burns toward established lines, there is bound to be an increase in the number of smoky days.
