One of my favorite fireworks, smoke bombs! Had to edit someone's foot out of the background because they were being dumb and didn't listen to me. D:<
As a child my daughter Jamie had a great fear of wood ticks. One day I returned home to find her dressed from head to toe in protective clothing after she had seen a tick crawling up a wall. So I took the photo which ended up being this 1995 drawing.
(This is my 200th flickr entry!!)
Tick, probably Ixodes ricinus, the Sheep Tick, Deer Tick or Castor Bean Tick, nymph, crawling across the instep of my left foot. Woodwalton Fen NNR, Ramsey Heights, Cambridgeshire. Sunday 9 June 2019.
It was way too warm for anything other than sandals again on Sunday, so inevitably I picked up rather a lot of these. I pulled three out yesterday; two from my right leg and one from my stomach, but all died during extraction.
Tick drags with a weighted piece of felt or flannel can be used to monitor for ticks. After walking through an area with the tick drag in direct contact with vegetation, the number, identity and life stage of ticks on the drag cloth are counted.

Between these two coins is a Deer Tick. These ticks are the ones that spread Lyme Disease. This one is bloated with blood so it much larger that they are before they attach. You can see how devilishly hard they are to find. Many dogs and people I know have contracted it.

Look what I just found on a piece of grass IN MY YARD.
In my town we NEVER have ticks, I guess they spray or something but I'm not exaggerating - we never get ticks.
[in the past few years we've maybe gotten 1 or two from our town.]
I mean yeah go one town over, any direction - and yeah you'll be covered in ticks. But my town?? Come on now..
And in case you're wondering.. Yes, I did move him around and pose him.
He was my model today... LMAO!

Recent storms caused by the "Beast from the East" have shifted tonnes of sand on Redcar beach revealing the remains of ancient woodland lost to the sea at the end of the last Ice Age. This SSSI site is believed by experts to have been part of Doggerland which existed until 5-6000 BC.
The "petrification" is caused by pore spaces within the wood being filled by minerals to give a "Stone-like" structure

After getting 6 ticks pulled off me on sunday night I found another one on monday night...at least I managed to pull this one off myself. it seemed pretty dead so maybe my blood isn't good enough for it ;) It's also absolutely tiny - hardly a millimeter wide so easily mistakeable for a freckle or a spot.

A couple REPULSIVELY LARGE Ticks found on one of the dogs. From what i read these are "Soft Ticks." Disgusting bastards.

Tick Tock topiary, part of the 2014 Epcot Flower & Garden Festival, at the United Kingdom Pavilion at World Showcase in Epcot.
After removing the tick, there was an evident bug bite that we cleaned and put Neosporin on. Hoping this is not the start of the dreaded bullseye rash that is attributed to Lyme Disease!
Bite area is about the size of a pencil eraser.

time clicks by
from silent moments
to quickly passing symphonies
punctuated by beams of light
ignore all distractions
keep moving
keep going
each motion bringing me closer
closer to my goal
i am
in this moment
a savior
an only hope
a last resort
i am
everything
right now
i feel like a god
right now
to somebody
i am.
a hiss of light
a soft click
i am
a target
my fingers clutch tighter
holding onto that bit of plastic
grasping a life in my hand
duck to the left
i'm safe again
dart into a shadow
and disappear
i continue on
passing quickly through the night.
