Looks like some kind of mite to me.

It looks like a Tic. But I've never seen a red Tic before.

I've searched the internet a bit and there are some articles where you read about red ticks so I guess it would be a tick. Not sure though but it looks very much like one...

Cool find!

There should be, like, a thread for pictures of neat/funny/weird things you see (like a random picture post, but less dumb, and actual pictures that you take)

Those things are all over the place... I don't know what they are, or what they're called. But they're very tiny, and they're all over. Go climb any tree int he summer and you're bound to find a few.

Didn't you ever climb trees as a kid? I still do when I'm outside, with really nothing to do. I'm still the only one I know that can shimmy up a tree 3 feet in diameter with no branches, besides my dad.

I always used to smear those bugs on the tree because they make a red mark on it. =)

Brutal honesty. Love it. Go climb a tree.
