How many dogs do you know would crawl through a hole in a tree just because you asked them to. Some but I don't think many.
Mouse-ears_Cerastium
Cerastium is a genus of annual, winter annual, or perennial flowering plants belonging to the family Caryophyllaceae. They are commonly called mouse-ears or mouse-ear chickweeds. There are 214 accepted species,[1][2] found nearly worldwide but with the greatest concentration in the northern temperate regions. A number of the species are common weeds in fields and on disturbed ground.
Cerastium uniflorum
Cerastium tolucense
Cerastium species are used as food plants by the larvae of some Lepidoptera species including Coleophora chalcogrammella (which feeds exclusively on Cerastium arvense) and Coleophora striatipennella (which has been recorded on Cerastium fontanum).

And now something a little different.
I do not know terribly much about the Mouse Guards, one pictured here, I just think they look nice. I have seen Shelly post about them, I also know there was a movie in the works at some point but it ran into problems and I don’t think it’s on anymore.
I saw a Getcrazybricks Kickstarter thing about these a while ago and decided to support enough to get at least one figure just to see how they’re like. It arrived a few days ago and it looked great!
Due to the nature of these figures I went for exceptionally heavy editing with the colours. It’s a mouse with cape, shield and a sword, no need for strict realism here exactly.
This is obviously not an official Lego product but rather something that is compatible with the brick. Nevertheless, I'm treating it as Lego. It just shows how versatile the Danish toy is.

The yellow-necked mouse (Apodemus flavicollis), also called yellow-necked field mouse, yellow-necked wood mouse, and South China field mouse,is closely related to the wood mouse, with which it was long confused. It was only recognised as a separate species in 1894. It differs in its band of yellow fur around the neck and in having slightly larger ears and usually being slightly larger overall. Around 100 mm in length, it can climb trees and sometimes overwinters in houses. It is found mostly in mountainous areas of southern Europe, but extends north into parts of Scandinavia and Britain. It facilitates the spread of tick-borne encephalitis to humans and is a reservoir species for the Dobrava virus, a hantavirus that is responsible for causing haemorrhagic fever with renal syndrome. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yellow-necked_mouse
Crazy Tuesday: December decorations
I came across a set of wreath ornaments while shopping the other day and couldn't resist! Each one has a different animal inside (hare, fox, bird, and this little mouse).
When I first got Mouse Manor. I had a horrible time pulling off the furry fabric they used for carpeting. I still can't get it all off. Luckily I have the 3rd floor and the 2nd floor far right rooms finished now with wood flooring.
When I looked around for what in my house was coloured blue I found quite a few things ( I like the colour). So there is this vase. Thick, blue and interestingly shaped with a history of being dropped from my buffet hutch onto the tiled floor and surviving! It was given as a Christmas present from my employer many years ago and bears the organisation logo! The mouse is my first wireless one which works well. Together they reflect the reality of my work - online within a large organization!

Trying to decide what fabric to use to make Mrs Mouse's dress, I'm liking these at the moment but I'll keep thinking.......
It appears that bird seed attracts all kinds of creatures other than birds. The reason I think this is a mouse and not a vole is because of the length of the tail which apparently is a lot longer for a mouse.
This is a computer mouse that glows when it’s in use. The orange bit pulsates. There is also a dock that charges the mouse and that is the green light on the picture. HMM
We watched the red-tailed hawk fly from tree to tree, now and then tormenting the wood ducks. Eventually he flew into the bushes and emerged with this mouse for his breakfast. It was a good morning for the hawk, not so great for the mouse. The morning light was harsh and the background could've been better. Wildwood Park, Harrisburg, Pennsylvania.
Bedst som man er igang med nærdøds gymnastik i den lokale sportshal lyder et lille knas. Først troede jeg, at det var én af mine tæer der brækkede, som følge af den vandvittige udfordring de var i gang med. det var det heldigviis ikke, men derimod denne lille fine atletik mus der brød ind i hallen og ville være med :-)
I've been working on making little fleece tops, scarves, and a few hats for mouse tree ornaments.
I bought the mice on clearance at Lowes after Christmas several years ago for less than a dollar each. I finally upgraded their outfits a bit. I used a thrift store red fleece scarf (0.50) and a thrifted craft kit ($2) that contained a variety of wool scraps. The striped scarves are just strips cut from thrift store kids tops (0.50 each). I did not need to hem any of the fabric so it made the process nice and easy. They look much more festive now.
I hung them on my mini tree which is Maileg inspired.
“This latter was a remarkably large and beautiful animal, entirely black, and sagacious to an astonishing degree.”

This little mouse shinned up the leaves of a young Rose and then balanced itself on the top of the pole whilst eyeing up the adjacent bird feeder

Wood Mouse Apodemus sylvaticus sylvaticus
A tiny baby mouse courtesy of Erik, It was unhurt but shaken. I caught it in a glass and fed it half a brazil nut and 2 pine nuts, greedy thing ate the lot. I released it in the front garden where Erik does not go. It sat on my hand quite happily as I lowered it to the ground, then scuttled under a bush.

124 Pictures in 2024 #70 Mouse
The mouse on my desktop computer. It is around 20 or so years old, so it's held up well.
This mouse was very tiny, body size only 2" at most, but this image is cropped. I could have cropped further, but didn't want to cut off his crooked tale. I was amazed that he let me get as close as this. I asked him what he was eating, and he said "a chip, of course!" It looks like a chip of food to me.
HMMM (Happy Macro Mouse Monday!!)
