I'm ignoring you Mark. I'm betting the extreme lack of snow cover is going to cut short blackfly season considerably. Depends on if we get another spring monsoon. There was three feet in my yard last St Paddy's Day, this year I'm expecting robbins any day, weeks early, still a bit of winter in the higher elevations, but I'm just waiting for the ground to finish thawing to get the yard neatened up for showing.
