This is really early even for Southern Illinois. Has it been unusually warm in your area?

It just keeps getting warmer and warmer earlier and earlier. I usually start finding them, at the earliest, right around April 1. It got warm about a couple weeks ago and then we had a little cold snap this past weekend but since Sunday the temps have been skyrocketing. The last few days has brought showers and T-storms also. It'll be 70 something the next few days as it was yesterday. Lows since tues night have been in the 50's. Rain and T-storms through Sat. So Sunday, upper 70's and Sun and they game should be on! Good Luck!!

Great job, JT! I assume that was your March 21st find now in the 2007 Hall of Honor. Thanks!

Found 13 this morning before the rain started up again. It shouldn't be much longer with the temps getting into the 80's tomorrow and Sunday! John, I'll post the pics soon or you can check out my blog site, posted earlier in this thread.

Great site, Grant! Keep the pics coming! We are actually getting some decent weather for "the hunt" and I wouldn't be surprised to see the pop early here.
