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.

Warming Up
Day 75: Perhaps I shouldn't have sung quite so many choruses of my snow song. Maybe I shouldn't have put "Let it snow!" in the mini-marquee in the hopes that it would induce a white Christmas. "Be careful what you wish for," they say. My neighbours have given up shovelling, and I've only swept paths to the various bird feeders. Sometimes, there's just no way to keep ahead in the game. Another big dump of snow is possible on Thursday, but temperatures should be rising to give us nights in the mid-teens. On the up side, I predict a drop in daily covid numbers. Ma Nature is doing what government can't: keeping the covey-spreaders home, at least here in the Pacific Northwest.
