At the bottom of our garden

In our small garden here in Breda, Holland, my wife and I are blessed with a very active wild life.
We have many different birds, 2 or 3 mice families, in summer a toad und his offsprings and unfortunately also a nuisance mole.
But back to the mice. They are extremely cute and fortunately the do not come into the house. When they have babies (we expect it will happen soon) then they are too many of them, I have developed a perfect “relocation” system. I catch them alive, with no harm done, and bring them to the nearest forest.
They eat happily from our bird feeder and you can be as close as 1 meter. We will not harm them and they got to trust us.
So making this photo was rather easy. They almost seem to pose and watch what I was doing. That I got two of them at the same time was a bonus.
This would also work well with the next challenge, “focal point”, but I guess it is too soon to have a similar photo again.
