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.

Siberian Sea
Day 233: The tide is running high in the Siberian Sea. Its waves wash along my south fence line, spilling into the neighbouring yard. It is a narrow channel, perhaps 24" at its widest, yet it surges with colour for a few brief weeks in the spring. Soon, its storm-whipped swells will be but a memory, and nothing will remain but a placid green passage, ebbing and flowing under the breezes of summer.
