    Wow. Those are nasty. I got a tick once and it left a scar. Evil little critters they are.

    Photos are sweet. What's the background? Are they stuck on tape?

    Yes it is the season to put on the flea and tick collars, get out the repellent and do frequent searches. And for the dogs too:D

    Found one on my dog a week or two ago. I guess spring is here.
