vole rampage

[bower]

Just wanted to share a few pics of the habitat taken up by voles this winter, and revealed when the snow receded! At first I thought there had been some kind of animal drama involving a fox and hare on a very soggy muddy slippery day which afterwards froze! Maybe that did happen too. But on closer inspection you could tell these were the burrowings of some small army of voles . I believe they must have fled into my garden when they lost their snow cover in the middle of winter. Anyway the best part is they didn't venture into the raised beds and instead ate away some of that grass in the pathways, that I didn't want there anyway.
