Resting gracefully on a lush fern frond, located in the enchanting Ashdown Forest of East Sussex, this tick proves that even ectoparasites have an eye for fashion and style. With its vibrant colors and delicate features, this woodland beauty effortlessly blends into her surroundings. The picturesque English countryside serves as the perfect backdrop for showcasing her impeccable taste in habitats. Who knew ticks could be so chic? As an arachnid trendsetter, our fashionable friend demonstrates how to make a statement while remaining engorged – truly a balancing act! With every detail captured by FLPA photographer Hugh Clark's lens, we are reminded that nature is full of surprises and hidden wonders. So next time you find yourself strolling through Ashdown Forest or any other temperate European woodlands, keep your eyes peeled for these fabulous forest dwellers.
