365Caws is now in its 16th year of publication. If I am unable to post daily, I hope readers who love the natural world and fiberarts will seize those days to read the older material. Remember that this has been my journey as well, so you may find errors in my identifications of plants. I have tried to correct them as I discover them. Likewise, I have refined fiberarts techniques and have adjusted recipes, so search by tags to find the most current information. And thank you for following me!

Heron On The Hunt
Day 138: Great Blue Herons are hard to resist when you have a camera slung around your neck, and I had plenty of willing models at the Nisqually National Wildlife Refuge today. I had gone to attend a Site Steward workshop and bonus nature-mapping segment, and good weather tempted me out to the end of the boardwalk yet again. The tide was in but receding, and a number of different varieties of duck were feeding in the shallows, accompanied by herons and gulls. I was able to capture images of both Common (Eurasian) and Green-Winged Teal as well. However, the herons always take the place of honor when I sort photos, my eye captivated by their ungainly yet graceful posturing.
