Wow. I do not even start looking until first week of February in CENLA. One sighting near Eunice too. Scout Study site

Just updating. Looks like 6 sightings total in La., and all below 190. First week of February is the earliest I have seen in CENLA. I sure hope none try before this weekend.

Poor frickers are going to freeze to death this weekend. I lost my whole colony about 5-6 years ago when we got an arctic blast early spring.

Same here. Hoping there aren't too many casualties this time. In reading up on it, they claim lack of food is actually worse than the cold itself.

Same. Even had a dozen in my house in boxes feeding them crickets and none of them survived either. But I've rebounded since and fill up my 12 gourd rack every yr. Will show up here any day now
