I never heard of eating ticks.

I took my skis out of the car today. So it's actually summer.

Birds eat ticks and opossums do too even off of deer's face, allegedly.
I think the wonder pony was referring to the leeks, though.

Opossums do a lot more good than you probably think.

Pretty sure WP was referring to the Leeks in regards to eating or not eating

Sorry. I wasn't clear. I think ramps are cool, but I don't eat them. Ticks are not cool. I don't eat them either. I never used to worry about ticks until last year, when I found two large areas of tick bite alopecia. The hair is growing back, which I am grateful for, but one spot is completely white. I thought about dying it some random color, but it seems to be blending in with the rest of the gray.

Ticks are creepy as hell. Ick

They're a bug. They're obnoxious. I am sure they serve some purpose in the food chain

What creeps me out and scares the $hit out of me are bears.

Wild ramps are one of the surest signs of spring. I saw some for the first time this season at the market this morning. I bought a handful and made some delicious ramp butter. That cheered me up on an otherwise dreary and rainy Sunday.
