Found throughout the British Isles, the Wood Mouse is our
most common and widespread wild rodent, and is usually found on the edges of
the reserve. However, it appears that a family at the NNR base have found
a way to help them get through the recent cold spells – by making a home in our
seed and peanut bin used for topping up the bird feeding station. These four
(with a fifth hiding), looked a bit guilty and then perhaps somewhat disappointed, when
we released them back on to the reserve – always pleasing to see these little
furry friends, and a nice treat for our team of volunteers on what had been a
very cold and wet day! Many thanks as always to our team for being such a big
help, and for bringing plenty of enthusiasm with them whatever the weather!
