I've only every found one (1) tick here at "Wagtail Park" in the 10 years I've lived here. It was on the chest of a horse and he came up to me, bobbing his head, to indicate that it was there.We have friends who have ginny hens. They are great at alerting you of an intruder with their incredibly loud calls, too noisy for me though.
My neighbour has a flock of guineafowls that roam his and my properties. The sound of them doesn't bother me at all and they're quite amusing... certainly not as loud as when the kookaburras go off with their calls.
(I thank the LORD that there are no Sulphur Crested Cockatoos here on the East coast of Tassie... a flock of them is deafening!)
