See Pip. <br /> <br /> "Bank vole (Myodes glareolus). The smallest of the UK voles, the bank vole is active during the day and night. The bank vole is the smallest UK vole with a reddish-chestnut coat and an off-white underside. Like all voles, it's a stocky little animal with a blunt snout, small eyes and ears. Its tail is short – just half the length of its body. At first sight, they can be confused with field voles, which are greyer with a shorter tail, or wood mice, which have a longer tail and move much more quickly. They can climb bushes in search of food. Diet: Fruits, nuts and small insects."<br /> <br /> Enjoy full screen</div> A visitor calls <p class="who"><a href="https://www.ipernity.com/home/1081863">Herb Riddle</a> has posted:</p><p class="preview"><a href="https://www.ipernity.com/doc/1081863/50333572"><img src="https://cdn.ipernity.com/200/35/72/50333572.66c47cc3.240.jpg?r2" width="240" height="171" alt=""/></a></p><div class="description">As we sit by the glass door of our holiday cottage I spot some movement just beyond the door area.
