Snow Mouse Thief!
I couldn't believe it... I'd been sitting some bird seed out on the back deck for my feathered friends and caught this little guy stealing their food. I didn't think mice could tolerate snow and cold so well... should have known better the little varmints ;-( He was quite funny to watch and after seeing the little notches in his ear I must admit I felt kinda sorta sorry for him and let him have the seed. More pics of this little one can be seen here:

on December 12, 2006How adorable! All of your shots are really cute. How can you help but feed him? It's tough going out there!

on December 11, 2006They really are quite cute - annoying as all get out if they decide your living quarters is theirs as well but outside in the snow is fine :) I am surprised it ventured out in mid day, normally they are nocturnal.
