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.

Walking It Out
Day 108: That should do it! Nothing like fresh air and exercise to get the last of a nasty bug out of your system. Okay, it's the first time in almost a month that I've felt like moving farther than from my chair to the kitchen, and it was only a little over three miles (I took a short detour up a side trail to look for snowdrops), but it really felt good to be out breathing woodsy air again. I found a few interesting things which I'll be featuring here over the next few days and revisited a lot of others which for a while I seriously wondered if I'd ever see again. This has been a nasty critter, this bug. It's been a long time since anything knocked me off my feet. And my timing for the hike was perfect. It started raining only a few minutes after I finished up.
