A present from my daughter this summer. A hand made glass mouse from the Cornish village of Mousehole (pronounced mowzell). 3cm tall, Just right for Macro Mondays theme "Glass"
Eurasian Harvest Mouse / micromys minutus. (Captive bred) Derbyshire. 23/05/15.
'REVEALING A DARKER SIDE'.
At a photography workshop three years ago, working with captive bred Harvest Mice, I can remember being very surprised by the intense colour of their underfur. I discovered that beneath the bright, gingery-brown guard hairs lies a dense black fur.
The Harvest Mouse pictured was happily clambering around some dead plant stems. It frequently passed thin projections that dug into it, causing the guard hairs to become dishevelled and out of place. This is exactly what had happened when I made the image, thus revealing the area of sooty black underfur.

For Burns Night, an extract from one of his poems. With Bella's attention, what mouse wouldn't be a "tim'rous beastie"?!
I'll be thinking of my Scottish friends as you celebrate tonight.
"The Mousetrap is a murder mystery play by Agatha Christie. The play opened in London's West End in 1952 and ran continuously until 16 March 2020, when the stage performances had to be temporarily discontinued during the COVID-19 pandemic. It then re-opened on 17 May 2021."
"Mouse Trap is also a board game, a long-time family favourite which is always good for zany action and lots of laughs. Scurry around the board collecting cheese and stealing cheese from other players but watch out for the trap!"
I love this little mouse. It is my latest addition to my family of handmade mohair critters. It is the first time I have used eyelashes, but they really suit this little mouse. It is 4.5" seated ( 12 cms) and weighted a little with lead shot, so it sits nicely in your hand.
Well, not really attack.
The light was not great in this shot but it's been a long time since Mouse appeared on my stream so I brought my camera when I went over to visit Mad and Mouse this afternoon.
There's a lot of grain but that's okay, you can still see how cute Mouse is.
Hope everyone has had a good day.

My wonderful Daisy crossed the Rainbow Bridge in August 2021. She was on medication for the last year of her life. But she remained a happy, loving & playful cat right to the end. Friends will remember her determination in claiming The Chair &, of course, her pink ballet shoes. She came to live with me when she was a small, scared stray kitten. She stole my heart on her first day with me, jumping on to my lap to claim her place from the start. She was loving, determined, naughty, funny… Always remembered with love - I was very fortunate to have her.
Happy Caturday.
Little mouse looking for tree seeds under the car.
Maybe the car even cracked some open?

"The works of Katharina Fritsch are based on images of memory, drawn from what she has seen or dreamed. She creates images that combine the real and the unreal, objects that are tangible yet appear like an illusion. Through this, they seem to exist in a parallel relationship to our everyday world. in 'Man and Mouse', the mouse is transformed into a dramatically enlarged figure that has taken up residence on the man's bed. The work can be interpreted as a materialized version of a nightmare, illustrating how small worries in dreams can grow and appear monstrous. For Fritsch, it is 'a picture of despair, of the nightmarish pressure I sometimes feel at night. 'At the same time, the work can also be seen humorously, as 'an image of a completely unbalanced relationship in which two people totally miss each other,' as described by the artist."

I wondered who was emptying the peanut feeders overnight. A lot of attempts at this usually only got part of a mouse or a tail. Two flashes used with a small light to aid focusing and a few hours out in the cold, but a very confiding mouse. Own garden, West Dorset.
