That is seriously too cute! I have never seen a picture of one of these! Great shot!

Nice capture of the vole in its habitat! I like the low perspective here and the fact that it doesn't seem to be bothered by your presence!

This is very compelling Graham, the way you managed to place this vole in its busy habitat and stand out at the same time. Like Tonia said, the fact that the subject seems completely at ease and that it continues feeding helps in making this a great behavioural image as well. :toast:

I agree with the others that you did a fine job of presenting him within a very busy setting.
