365Caws is now in its 16th year of publication. If I am unable to post daily, I hope readers who love the natural world and fiberarts will seize those days to read the older material. Remember that this has been my journey as well, so you may find errors in my identifications of plants. I have tried to correct them as I discover them. Likewise, I have refined fiberarts techniques and have adjusted recipes, so search by tags to find the most current information. And thank you for following me!

Dee-Dee Documentation
Day 70: It's still not the "field guide" shot I want, but Solstice brought an opportunity to capture several views of my pesky little 'dee-dee friend. As far as I can tell, only one is coming to the feeder, dashing in to grab a few seeds and then returning to the deep interior of the contorted filbert to eat them. That said, the bird is becoming less leery of me and of the light (what pitiful light there is) glinting off the camera lens. It often remains hidden in the filbert, chattering "Chick-a-dee-dee-dee!" at me while I'm in the yard. If I'm patient, I can usually spot it among the branches, but it seldom perches in the open. I was lucky to get this shot!
