[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
The wood mouse (Apodemus sylvaticus L.) has an elongated body, a tail as long as the body, large ears proud of the fur, large eyes like ankle-boot buttons. The wood mouse frequents various habitats (edges of deciduous forests, hedges, fields, parks and gardens). In autumn, it has a tendency to seek refuge in buildings and homes. It is nocturnal. It runs quickly and climbs easily. In general it digs a shallow burrow, but can also live in existing cavities: hole of a wall, birds' box.

Common Names :
DE: Waldmaus, Kleine Waldmaus, Springmaus ES: Raton del monte FR: Mulot sylvestre, Souris sauteuse IT: Topo selvatico PT: Rato do campo GB: Common wood mouse.

Hi Pierre,
This is fun.
I think the tail is longer than the body actually.

Bonjour Pierre,
Merci encore de ton aide pour le coléoptère. J'ai regradé un peu ta galerie de photos. Plaisir de voir des photos très naturelles et vivantes .
J'aime bien celle-ci avec ce petit mulot sylvestre qui est vraiment adorable à regarder.
Bonne netteté et environnement naturel.
Très bien vu
