I'm surprised we haven't heard more about blue tongue disease hitting them this year, what with water scarce and sources concentrated.
I also am interested to see what kind of acorn crop we have. Might be a lean winter for the deer with the corn and beans so crappy. |

blue tongue has been hitting NE hard this year around the Platte and spreading throughout the state. NE G&P have acknowledged this. i heard that Montana had it really bad two years ago.
