#215 Lucky Escape

Just as I was leaving for work this morning Claudia
spotted our cat, Roger,in the garden playing with
this mouse. Lucky for mousey Roger seemed to be in
a gentle mood and didnt do the mouse any permanent harm !

I managed this snap quickly before mousey scurried off !

This little mouse probably has a friend for life...Roger, for letting him go peacefully. :-) Great close-up.

Aww, poor Roger! Fantastic focussing on this - are you sure he scurried away? ;)

I always like Tom rather than Jerry but glad the mouse lived to pose for another day. Nice macro....

Roger must have realized that you needed a PaD for the day. Hope he wont bring you a gift tomorrow into the house in the form of mousy here. Very fantastic close up.
