Lemmings

It seems field mice don't look before they leap. If you may recall, one such mouse dove into a garbage can for a leftover takeout box without any thought as to how it would get out. On this evening, I accidentally spooked one that was scurrying along the wall. It panicked and took a drastic 90 degree turn straight into the bottomless cesspool of the gun battery. It would be hard enough for a person to climb out, but I can't imagine a field mouse would be able to jump up a 3 foot ledge while treading water.

 

Nature's perfect animals...
