Complete information on the notes! It moves faster that the other species, but you were able to capture one perfectly! The composition is perfect! The focus is sharp! The photo shows the season as well. I can see it's tenderness in the eye and its position, always ready for a quick move. Thanks for sharing Grace!!!

This is the time of year that these guys seem to migrate from my garden to my garage. A very cute specimen and a fine shot. I like the glittering eye and the great colors.

Well whatever he carries... he carries it with cuteness!

I've never seen such a mouse before. I'm used to the ones we have here... but mostly rats!

Wonderful colors and clarity.

You captured the little animal excellently. The leaves around are a good scale for its small size. The photo is well focused and exposed. Even the whisker's of the little mouse are pin-sharp and all colors are realistic. The light reflection in the eyes of the cute animal are intriguing.
I appreciate the information in your comments. It is sad that they carry the virus, but this is one reason more not to play with or harass wild animals or touch their dead bodies. In my opinion in modern times deadly infections are sped mainly by careless humans.

Yeah,Grace!
That Hanta virus used to worry people a lot back when I was working in a local hospital!
( Luckily it hasn't made an appearance here yet though! It's bad enough with all the Rabies and the rapidly increasing 'Triple E' outbreaks we've been having! )
That's a fine looking picture of that little creature,my friend!
'Good Show'!

    Thank you! The Triple E is horrifying, especially with how easily it can be transmitted.

    I KNOW! We had someone die of it just over the Massachusetts state border yesterday! : (

I am terrified of mice , I know it's ridiculous but I am! However this little guy is actually kind of cute!
I appreciate the clear detail you show here and that clear eye! I also like this natural setting and it looks like this little critter is sitting on a leaf, that shows his tiny size, well focused , clear image with good light management, colors and tones are natural. Well presented!

It is indeed cute Grace, and I especially like how well you have captured the big shiny eye. I think the feet are very cute as well, and I like the background With the fallen Autumn leaves. It must be very difficult to even find these rodents, and even more difficult to makes it pose for you like this.

The Focus is spot on and Sharp showing Clear and well defined details in the little mouse, and the exposure is Perfect.

The format and framing is very good and the mouse has got a very good placement off to the right. A truly Sweet and well taken photo.
