Hi Martin, Aug 22, 2010
Because they are localized to lower leg, I would suspect some delayed reaction to a knee-high scabrous plant. Possible candidates; Carex spp., grass, Polygonum scabrum...

Subject: [NatureNS] blackfly bites, or what are they
I walked last thurs into North River Fall, in shorts.
On my lower leg I had quite a few, what looked like, black fly bites. Some 40 on each leg, randomly spaced - not like I brushed into some noxious plant.
Usually they are no problem and the next day they are almost gone.
These itch a little.
Today is Sunday and there really red and slightly raised.
Anybody know what happened?
Marty
