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.

Day 98: It seems a new standard has been instituted. For most of my life, I've bragged that I just don't get sick, but the last three or four Januaries have shattered that enviable record. Last year, a cold went into bronchitis and then progressed to pneumonia, keeping me down for six weeks. So far, this is just a cold, and I'm giving it the Aboriginal treatment, i.e., snuffling water up my nose every few hours to wash out the inside of my head. It's helping. I'll spare you the remaining complaints. Just suffice to say that if I don't seem to be my usual perky self...well, it took every scrap of energy I had to set up this shot.
