I had one last Monday. Not sure where I got it – someplace in the Treasure Valley. Ugh.
Hey out there ible’rs, RL, here.

Not exactly birds, but, useful for birders to know.
While not a big or unexpected announcement here in SW ID,… ticks … are out.
Picked one up yesterday, likely from Blue Lakes here in Ada Co.. Not quite expecting this early, found it on me this morning, just a few mins. ago in fact. So, should you be like me and tend to chase around in the sagebrush for birds, be careful, check yourself afterward.
CGB. RL, self-certified tick magnet.

Motto: If they’re out there, we will find each other.
