Thanks for the input, Hannah. I've no idea what color the ticks are around here. Mmmm...
Hannah Davis
Too fat, though, I think. Maybe a mimic? Or maybe just a coincidence if you don't have ticks with that colouration where you are.
Hannah Davis
I'm probably imagining things, but those look a lot like ticks...
