I found this girl (thanks LaurenZarate) on my deck last night while relaxing with my dogs. I'm sure it fed on one of us:(
Maybe the risk is not as high as it could be here. Bites can be painful too ,besides of course Malaria .Nile virus etc.
I have to admit, Jemma, that I'm pretty passive about protecting myself from Mosquitos. Probably should be a little more cautious than I am.
This is unique and unusual to see a blood filled belly.I am cautious of mosquitoes and put myself on a regimen of meds when i go to India.
Yup, and probably mine:). I love most insects, but Mosquitos are difficult to like except in pictures.
wow !! blood filled abdomen!!
Thanks so much Billo!
Wooow! good macro :D
Ha! Too funny:) Didn't even think about what I was typing. Should probably edit. Thanks for the comment Lauren:)
Ha ha ha! Funny. That "guy" is a girl! :) Nice shot!
