The central green bead represents the Earth. The black tourmaline on the right signifies the darkness in which the First People lived until Raven stole fire from the Sun and gave it to them. The amethyst crystal on the left represents the fire. The smaller birds symbolize all my avian friends, not solely corvids. Raven, with his many faces and shape-changing ability, guards us all.
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.

Raven Necklace
The central green bead represents the Earth. The black tourmaline on the right signifies the darkness in which the First People lived until Raven stole fire from the Sun and gave it to them. The amethyst crystal on the left represents the fire. The smaller birds symbolize all my avian friends, not solely corvids. Raven, with his many faces and shape-changing ability, guards us all.
