There are a lot more this year but the number of people out trying to get photos of them has gone up as well, I went to my local spot this morning only to be greeted with 10 or so people hanging around chatting with their pink and blue jumpers and white hats on wondering why nothing was showing. No fieldcraft and no idea so that spot is ruined unless it is raining. So I now need to find another spot. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
