Coordinator notes: Neat that you are promoting SOs in NE Colorado Char...too bad they cannot survive over winter here. That's why I think it is best to consider them strays and not "temporary colonists" even though they are obviously colonizing your place since a suitable host is present. Take care,
Mike
