Chico Basin Ranch is hoping for helpers to try to remove the mass of tumbleweeds at the RMBO Banding Station in El Paso County. Photos can be seen here https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=10206318845676300&set=gm.10152595513612038&type=1&theater
Dates that they are working there will be Saturdays, 21 March and 4 April (I doubt two days will be enough to make a dent in the tumbleweed problem, though maybe). If you have questions, call the Ranch, during business hours, 719.683.7960. Check the CBR website too for information about the Ranch. http://www.chicobasinranch.com/
Anyone who plans to bird there this spring, might want to help with this, as it will be hard to bird in there, with the tumbleweeds covering all of the banding lanes. The tumbleweeds are also bad at the Headquarter Willows and pond there, though I'm not sure they plan to remove those.
I was out at Chico today, and the tumbleweed problems are really really 100 times bad!
