Water Vole
A bonus of birding means that you'll get to see lots of other wildlife while you are out in the field. At Sculthorpe Moor in Norfolk, underneath one of the feeding tables, there were literally thousands of sunflower seeds. While I was watching the table something caught my eye underneath. A movement of some sort. When I looked there was nothing there. It happened a couple more times before I finally saw what it was. A water vole was appearing from a camouflaged hole in the ground. In fact there were two. They were very timid and disappeared at the slightest noise or movement. Having said that, I managed a couple of shots.

They are adorable! They have much more cartoon-like dimensions than the House Mouse.
ReplyDeleteI often find that if I pick a certain spot and just be still in it for 5 minutes, something interesting like this will come along.
I've never seen one of these little creatures. They are cute!
