A little water-mouse I think, eating a seed. I saw a family of 4 in the reeds at a wetland area near home. I tried to get a couple of them in shot together, but the reeds kept getting in the way.

I liked this shot, so here goes.
Hoping for a PB - 6.5? :}

I appreciate this photo must have been incredibly hard to take, and I think you've done a great job on the lighting, but the little guy is not in focus.
