The Brown Rat is one of my favourite subjects, due to its furtive nature, endearing behaviour patterns and animated features. This one kept popping out from the undergrowth to enjoy a snack from a stash of titbits it had secreted somewhere under a clump of leaves. Photographically, the main challenge was focusing at distance on a relatively small subject (I have plenty of shots where I just missed!).

Lovely! I think they must all be my favourite today, those little hands and the quivering whiskers, so cute.
