Heron's Crossing

The comic cover, made in August 2024!

Banished from their former clan, two sisters, Spurucewater and Hazelslip, stumble upon an island with three clans. One mysterious night, Sprucewater encounters a soul, wandering for longer than she’s lived. As they unfold the secrets of the island, Scorchstripe and Snailpaw of CreekClan investigate the disappearance of a fellow clan member. The four cats learn that they hold the fate of their clans- in the real world and in between.

Heron's Crossing is a warrior-cats-inspired webcomic made by @wolfix-does-stuff and @foxxf1nch! We hope you enjoy our silly cat comic :3

Myst in this^^^

A small mystery.

My hikes on the trails at San Pedro House usually take me by two fallen cottonwood trees, with their entire root plates exposed. From their size, I think the trees were likely at least a century old when they fell. On my latest hike I found a cow jawbone protruding high on the root mass of one of the trees. There were also loose bits of teeth and bones on the pile of soil that has washed from the roots. 

San Pedro House was built the late 1930s, and was an outpost and cattle breeding operation of Little Boquillas Ranch. Cattle would have grazed here well into the 1980s. Cattle herds may have arrived along the San Pedro River as early as 1540 during Coronado’s entrada into what is now Arizona, and it is certain there were herds of hardy crilollo cows on the open range here throughout the 18th and 19th Centuries. 

But how did this jawbone end up enmeshed deep in in the roots of a hundred year old cottonwood tree? Or is this someone’s small joke, a sort of Piltdown Cow, with teeth and bones deliberately placed in the caliche soil to confound the gullible?

Species identification help? Unknown vert- 5 cm by 3 cm, brown in colour. Fairly damage. Unknown long bone- 18 cm by 3 cm. Tan in colour Both ends are very damage, no indications of where it connected with other joints. On the other side of the bone are the characters "IB791244" Both bones were bought in Anchorage Alaska and were just labelled "old Alaskan bones"

Also don't you just love finding bone fragments in your mouth when you wake up in the morning? We don't even have food with bones in the house so what the fuck is up with that?
