This is the 15th year of continuous daily publication for 365Caws. All things considered, it's likely it will be the last year as it is becoming increasingly difficult for me to find interesting material. However, I hope that I may have inspired someone to a greater curiosity about the natural world with my natural history posts, or encouraged a novice weaver or needleworker. If so, I've done what I set out to do.

Prodigal's Return
Day 27 (Part B): At 9 AM, Fuzzy Wuzzy was MIA and I figured he'd dropped more deeply into the Euonymus than I could readily see, protected from bird predation by those long urticarial guard hairs which can be irritating to humans as well. At least that's what I was telling myself hopefully, not wanting to admit the possibility that he'd met a natural end. I kept checking from the kitchen...the wall of the garage is visible from the window...and a little later, I thought I could see color which wasn't the pink of old Euonymus. Sure enough, there was my little friend, back again, and boy, was I relieved! Perhaps he's still looking for the perfect shelter. Tonight's bedcheck finds him missing again. I wonder if he'll be back in the morning?
