:eek: :shock: :grin:
Yeah!
Imagine my surprise when 2 full weeks early an ASY scout showed up!
I was wondering if I hallucinated when I checked the scout report and no one north of Central Texas had any birds!
I called Troy G. to check my sanity....and we just figured I was lucky...wouldn't you know he had one show up today too!
My house was closed up (Was going to open it tomorrow), no nesting materials or anything! Yowza!
I rushed to put together a makeshift nest and open a few holes and will promptly attend to property bed-making tomorrow.
Very surprised and very happy!
Bring on the 2013 PM season!
