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.

A Special Friend
Day 4: Of all the people who have touched my life, there has been none as sweet and dear as my fishing buddy's wife. Today we celebrated her 91st birthday: the two of them, both daughters, one granddaughter and her husband, two great-grandchildren and I. Ten years ago, they welcomed me into the bosom of the family and have stood by me as if I were their own daughter, a fact for which I will always be grateful. This one's for you, Y. Happy Birthday!
