Croatan National Forest, NC, count results, August 26
Well – we got mostly lucky with the weather, picking the first day after a lot of cloudy and often rainy weather. That didn’t stop passing storms around 8 am and also around 4 pm, but otherwise it was warm and partly cloudy. Because of drought, this count had not been run in 2010 or 2011. This year, there has been plentiful rainfall, but the numbers of individuals still seems depressed a bit, owing to the drought.
