Little thing just to the right of my nose on my face shield.

Hey, for once I'm ahead of you Stig.  Had my first bug squash of 2022 a couple of weeks ago!

Beat you both. I cleaned my AK a few weeks ago and there were a few bug splats from several weeks before that.

Didn't know tics can crawl as fast as any scooter so to just hop on for the ride.  :)
