Thank you!
nice one!
You are welcome :)
Jeannette - you nailed it! Thanks again! :)
Thanks for the tip Jeannette, I will check it out!
It looks like the genus stratiomys, but I am not sure if it is only seen in Europe.
Atul, it was in the meadow that borders our yard at the back. We hope to buy that land at some stage to prevent anyone building on it.
wow , was this in the yard??
