You have to look hard to see him as we were quite a way off. But we watched this little vole go backwards and forwards to the hole with his nesting materials. If you click on the photo it will be easier to see

Hi BB The woods in question run along side the river Wear and that particular area is always boggy.
Badgerbread said:Actually, I was completely wrong about the riverbank thing
Hi Badgerbread,
You weren't entirely wrong. There are Water Voles who live on river banks. The ones in my garden were ordinary voles. They are nocturnal normally, and can be a nuisance as they eat young plants in the garden.
Cheers, Linda.

That's a great photo Birdwatcher. Well done to your OH on his powers of observation.
The necessity of bird-watching is a really good reason for avoiding all forms of housework.
The dust will still be there tomorrow - the birds may not be!
Oh that's so sweet! Good spot and pic Birdwatcher!
