This is the first year I've seen my RES spawn, and they're still on the nests.
After the drought last year, I had an area that was covered with bermuda, and mowed on a regular basis. This is where some of the RES made their nests this Spring. The area is about 20'X4', and it's packed edge to edge with the RES nests. Is this normal, or just where they decided to spawn here at my place? All the soil around this area is the exact same depth, clarity, and the same clay/sand mix that the CNBG use. There was not one RES bed in the clay/sand area.
