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.

Townsend Two-fer
Day 300: It goes without saying that I'm probably trying to dip the ocean dry with a teaspoon, but for the past four or five years, I have been steadily relocating squirrels and chipmunks from my yard to habitats where they can't get in nearly as much trouble. That said, I have never caught a "two-fer" before. I don't know who was more surprised, me or my two Townsend captives. They were transported several miles up the road, released into a welcoming forest and when I got home, I had no sooner reset the trap than another one of the cheeky little buggers showed up under the bird feeder. Sigh. You just can't win.
