If you've a minute, can you give me your opinion on some footprints I've posted on my blog, Shirl? I can't tell whether they're rat or w-v.
Thanks
Kate
I've seen rats use water vole runs and 'launches', but I've never specifically seen one in a w-v burrow. Periodically they try and oust the w-vs near me, and I have to get pest control in. The one time I tried to leave it and hope the voles sorted it, they all disappeared. I learnt my lesson!
Hi, Shirl! In your pic of a rat burrow on the Signs and Tracks thread, how do you know it's rat and not water vole? I find it really really hard to tell the difference between them.

Just posted a couple of water vole pics from this morning into the Gallery, been on holiday so I just had to get down to the canal. 2 adults and 2 juveniles out and about - lovely
