Wood Mouse

Stumbled across a very tame Wood Mouse at Willington Gravel Pits yesterday (4th January 2015).  Was a very cold morning with very dense mist over the lakes so went for a wonder, well couldn't see anything anyway.  I reckon this particular mouse was a bit cold and was obviously very hungry and was completely oblivious to my presence and allowed me to get to within a few inches whilst scampering along grass stems, bramble stalks and teasels.
