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.

Swamp Witches
Day 245 (bonus edition): I can't resist posting this shot from yesterday's bike ride. It makes me feel like I was dropped into a Russian fairy tale and Baba Yaga is lurking in the woods. The pool is one of many alongside the Foothills Trail between Orting and South Prairie. This one in particular also reminds me of a Mangrove swamp. The trees are Cottonwoods and Alders, though, and the pool dries up almost entirely by the end of the season. Still, these Swamp Witches do their voodoo and enchant me every time I pass by.
