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.

Of a mornin', 'twas like stroke o' lightnin' 'it me 'ead: me little crow wot's been a avatar fer me these many years! 'E ain't so big as 'e looks 'ere, an' 'is feathers is lookin' a mite ruffled until 'e gets hisse'f all settled, but there 'e be fer good an' fer aye, an' th' Black Blade 'as got 'erse'f a right pirate's tattoo.
