I would have stayed & tried to get better shots but I found a tick crawling up my leg & it wierded me out too much to stay.

not great but thought I'd share since this was the first time I've come across them.









I'll go back when I hose myself down with tick spray:D
or maybe I should get one of those collars:dunno

They look like they forgot to wear their smock while painting.

Always nice to see something new, Dave.

If you want to shoot wildlife you have to tolerate the occasional tick. What's Lyme disease when you can get a good shot? :ivar


Actually it would have weirded me out too.

Interesting shots.
