| | | Wood mouse?
We saw this yesterday in the woods - actually almost trod on it before it moved off. It didnt even seem to notice our presence. First I thought it was a wood mouse but the ones in the Gallery have larger, rounder eyes. It was bigger than a house mouse. Any ideas?'  |

Could be a Yellow-Necked Mouse but I'm definetely no expert on mammals and I'm just giving the name of another woodland mouse I know

Yellow-necked Mice are c1.5 x size of Wood Mouse, but you need to see underside of neck to be sure of ID, so could be either of these 2 species. |

It's definitely a Woodmouse, but judging by the look of it a more accurate description by now is that it WAS a Woodmouse |

long gone now i would imagine. difficult from a photo to really tell the difference, looks like its desperate to catch the warmth. Although it looks healthy maybe it was going for the 'if i dont move you cant see me' approach. | | |
