Here he is. Not a rat, but a mouse. I suspected he was there after finding obvious traces and hearing a suspicious scratching. Luckily it was not a pack but just one mouse, or was it two. Difficult to say as they look alike. Naturally silly me got sympathetic for this little mouse in my garden cupboard and was feeding him with bird food. I could not have a starving mouse in my cupboard. I also put out food hoping he would appear and I could shoot a few photos.

I took a few photos of course and here he is in his full mouse glory. This was 2-3 years ago. One day he left probably because I stopped feeding him. This was not such an organised mouse and left quite a mess behind him.
