It's Springtime and here in the Southeast, it's also time for the ticks and other pests to come out. While shooting some birds in the trees behind my house Sunday, I got two with ticks on their eyes.





Both shot through double-pane Thermopane sliding-glass door with D70/70-200VR/TC-17E and cropped about 50%.
