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.

Piggy-Wiggy Wigglies
Day 339: Working at the Fair has substantial bonuses. Best of all, I get a free pass for each day I have a shift in the Park booth and am allowed to enter the fairgrounds before the gates open. Otherwise, I wouldn't be able to get anywhere near the piggies in the Pig Palace, even with attendance as low as it seems to be this year. These little critters are impossible to photograph without flash when they're awake, all squirm and squeal and wiggles, but nothing is as cute as a contented and sleeping piglet, at least not in my book. What's not to love about those long eyelashes and wrinkly noses and enormous ears? Is it any wonder that the pig barn is the most popular animal venue at the Fair?
