211 - Please Release Me...



If you look closely, you will see the pink snout of a tiny grey mouse as it peeks out from the hatch of a Havahart humane rodent trap.  That's my wife operating the trap door, while I snap the picture using a fast shutter.  Somehow, I caught the brief interval between the door opening and the mouse zipping into the woods in a furry blur. 

My wife reasoned that if there was one mouse, there would be more, and she was right.  So far, we've trapped and released three mice, although only one was in our house.  The rest of the brood has been living in our garage, or so we believe.
