Re: Sunny Wednesday
Wow, that's an unusual and strange reaction to the bite! Normally it's just a very itchy welt. Here's a pic of the nasty thing; they were introduced to the States in 1985 and have spread all over the country, And they carry West Nile virus also, which has been devastating to quite a proportion of our birds. Hope your bite clears up soon!
