This is one of a family of rats that have set up home around my bird feeders and have set about cleaning them out!. Hopefully our local tawny owls will sort them out before I have to.

Different...and I like the setting it is in. I like the autumnal colours and the detail in his face, nose and whiskers area. Some might not be keen on the leaf in the bottom right corner as it is a bit blurred....but overall very good (as far as I'm concerned).

Echo Ian's comments here Rob, but the detail in the whiskers, well.
Great to see a different animal on here

Hate the things but I can still apreciate a good shot of one. Good seperation between head and background.Background is busy but consistently busy so less of a distraction if that makes sense.
