I am really late this year, but saw my first ASY male just a few minutes ago, 8 am. I had a first bird on the 20th before, back in 2001, and 2007, so nothing unusual about this time. Hope you all have a good year.

Nothing unusual?

ahem..

It's a miracle before which we stand and ponder with awe every spring! (grin)

Good luck to you too this season.

John:
Actually, when I wrote that word unusual, I was thinking it might not have been my best choice of words to describe the situation we all stand in....
Thanks.
