In the cool shade of the Weedy Pond, the Water Shrew is busily about it's business.
Here slowed down to half-speed, for better views.

The Common Shrew is a very capable swimmer.
Note the air bubbles attracted/attached to the fur of the animal.
They are visiting water sources more than ever here, in the severe drought conditions.

Where there are voles & small birds, there may well be weasels....

An opportunistic hunter, here slowed-down for a better view.
They use the hedgerows as highways.

Small mammals by the nocturnal weedy pond.
Water Shrews always fill each unforgiving minute with 60 seconds worth of items sniffed...
Last night there were Common Shrews & Voles as well.

Trouble at the bankside - a Bank Vole disturbs the bathers.
This vole is photo-bombing frequently at the moment.
We might see a Weasel appearing soon - they are always patrolling around the pond here, for an unwary small mammal...

Tiny, fast, and easy to miss, a harvest mouse weaving through the seed heads for just a moment before disappearing again. A bit of peekaboo

Watch out, watch out, there's a Weasel about...
If you're a Bank Vole or a Great Tit there's always a touch of jeopardy when you drop by for a drink & there's a Weasel in hunting mode.
So many #SmallMammals are drawn to reliable sources of water at the moment.

Really interesting talk this evening from @charlotteesharpe.bsky.social about her Master's project, using camera traps to investigate the status of Greater White-toothed Shrew.

Some fantastic #SmallMammal #CameraTrap images.

1/2 When I looked at this clip I thought, yep, an adult Common Shrew but the more I looked at how proficient it is at underwater swimming I began to think ? juv. Water Shrew.
I have Water Shrews here - but I've only seen the darker adults before. Thoughts? @fionamathews.bsky.social

The Water Shrew is now a fixture on the camera at night, although it sometimes appears briefly in daylight.
For size comparison, a Pygmy Shrew briefly photobombs in this clip, (I think it's a Pigmy - ?longer tail than the Common). Happy to be corrected @fionamathews.bsky.social

Pygmy Shrews are manic at the best of times, but this little one is definitely in a hurry #SmallMammals #BiologicalRecording
