[Tweeters] Dates for Samish SEOW?

[Zora Monster via Tweeters]

I haven’t visited this year, but with all of the flooding in December I would not expect to find them. They eat mostly mice and voles. The floods most likely decimated their food source.

Normally you’d expect to see them this time of the year.
