Congratulations Jason on a successful year!
The SY will return next year, in their new adult colors and your colony will be off and running!
Way to go on the 100% fledge!
Great Job...hate to tell you...but the second year is nerve racking...waiting and wondering if they will make it back. Three pair will give you better odds!
Wishing you continued success!
