Hi all sorry if this isn't the right place to post this however as we are spending a lot of time outside birding at the moment I feel its only fair to post a little reminder just to check yourselves for Ticks after a days birding.
I found a tick on my dog yesterday (in Norfolk) the scary bit is although my doggy is very friendly he's never off the lead when walking (he's off lead in our secure garden and couple of times on beach only in winter but not this year so far) and when I'm birding he is tethered to me on a short lead in other words he goes where I go!
So yes its a brilliant time to be going off the beaten track in search of birds just be careful
thank you and sorry if this wasn't the place to post
