The murder of the shrews

A dead tame shrew

Cute tree rat

autumn begins

yesterday on the track to Big waters found these 2 dead Water shrews I assume they killed each other as they were only a few feet apart. A Black necked grebe fed busily on the pond among the vigorous weed that the many Mute swans are feeding on. 40 Greylag and 7 Canada geese were among the slowly growing wildfowl numbers.
