We spotted this American dog tick perched at the end of some foliage. Remember to always check for ticks after spending time outside - even in your yard or in a park. These ticks can transmit tularemia which is an infectious disease that attacks the skin, eyes, lymph nodes and lungs as well as Rocky Mountain spotted fever which is a bacterial infection that causes vomiting, sudden high fever, headache, abdominal pain, rash and muscle aches.

The Bell Tower at UNC. Rumor has it that the funding for this clock tower came from an auction with a twist: the bidders thought they were bidding to fund the library (now Wilson Library) but evidently the school gave the library to the second highest bidder and they gave this bell tower to the high bidder. To get back at the lower bidder, the winner designed the cap above this bell tower to be exactly tall enough so that when you stand in the quad near South Building the cap looks like a dunce cap on top of the Wilson Library dome! Pretty funny, I hope it's true

Toby was cast as the tick tock croc in PACK's production of Peter Pan and I was asked to make the costume, which was so much fun. The props and costumes were meant to look like they were taken out of the kids' imaginations, so I wanted the croc to look like something they could have made. It also needed to be easy to see and easy to get into/out of. (Toby was also a memeber of the Indian tribe, so he had 2 quick changes. His base costume was brown for that, I wanted it to work for this.)
I made the base out of cardboard boxes, overlapped and stacked to hold their own weight when uptight. I wanted them to read as cardboard, but some of the boxes were printed so I covered everything in brown corrugated paper. I lined the inside of the mouth with black posterboard and added teeth. The eyes are painted styrofoam balls and I attached the tail sections with plastic shower curtain rings so they would move when he walked. I lightly spray painted his belly yellow and his back green for some contrast. I also added foam to the insdie top for Toby's head to sit in so it would be comfortable to wear. He came out to "Crocodile Rock" and was a hit! He could easily be seen and was a very funny moment.
This 280 seat Midtown Manhattan diner opened in 1997 at 481 8th Avenue (corner of 34th Street), across the street from Penn Station. I really like the name of this place and their colorful sign really catches the eye! Home cooking and air conditioning is a combo that can't be beat!

Greater Beggars Ticks, Bidens subalternans. Apsley Falls, Oxley Wild Rivers National Park, NSW Australia, April 2013.
recently I enjoy very much to take pictures with my ipod and play some pp (maybe I've become a bit lazy...).
This one it's been taken while I was sitting on a very comfortable couch in a cafetteria waiting for my wife doing some "not so window" shopping
Tick, probably Ixodes ricinus, the Deer Tick, Sheep Tick or Castor Bean Tick, a partially engorged nymph, approximately 2.0mm long, extracted alive from my lower back after a visit to Holme Fen NNR on July 2, 2020. Image taken on July 4, 2020.
I was eating my dinner in front of the TV last night when I felt my back itching, and a fingertip exploration (or what medics always like to call a 'digital examination') immediately identified the likely source. Thankfully it was in an accessible place and came out easily, and a quick check with a x10 hand lens confirmed that I hadn't left any bits behind. It's still annoying though, as after spending several hours kneeling on the ground searching for aphids on Thursday I made a point of doing a whole body tick search when I got home. Obviously missed this one!

This was a creepy thing to do because I hate ticks. Someone brought thirty ticks preserved in alcohol and asked me to send him photos of them. These are the ones that carry Lymes Disease. In my area the carrier rate (Borrelia in the tick) is 28%.
Robert proudly displays the tick jar carrying my first tick of the season, a dog tick that really loved my leg. Robert used a maneuver he learned from camp training: tweeze the tick and gently lift, and the tick will release on its own.
Less than a month and the new Charlotte Primary School needs to be in full swing.
From what I can observe in the lite areas in the early morning, there is a lot of punch list items yet to check off.
Nymph stage black legged tick collected on a tick drag. Whereas larvae only have six legs, nymph and adult ticks have 8 legs. For more information: www.nysipm.cornell.edu/factsheets/buildings/tick_mgmt.pdf
