Ok, maybe not that upset…There is a tiny mouse in my bathroom…
Tomorrow I am bringing big guns…a cat.
The theme today is called Things Not Quite Discarded.

Accept or choose not to, I nominated you in my blog for the Sunshine Award. Love your work.
Thank you!
B – I feel your pain. When living in London years ago, we had a rat take up roost in our living room. Blech! May the gods smile down upon you! 🙂
This won’t stand…I am still bringing the cat. Thank you.
Well, the days ahead can only get better.
Yes, it seems that this is how it works. Time is an amazing thing.
It sounds very hectic and not much fun but this is a wonderful set of images. I especially like the car, the roots and the skull.
Thank you. I went to get a cup of coffee on my first day here and I found a skull. Here nature comes with its natural order and we abide by it.
Love the trees on the ground and the whole série. real good stuff
Thank you. Enjoying your work too
I hate mice and rats, so disgusting…I was once had a studio where a mice made my bedroom his new place, I walked out and only came back to move out! I feel for you!!
It seems that my fear is almost phobic when something small and rodent-like comes around.
I sympathise Babs, mice are sweet little creature, when they are on the outside where they belong, and a total pain in neck when they invade our space. As much as I hate to say this, we were invaded a few years ago and I put down old fashioned traps baited with Rolo’s (chocolate sweets?). It worked and so far we have had no more. Now we are invaded with ants!!!!
I do hope you day and week brightens up.

Thank you for the tip. Now with ants you have to erase their own scent they leave on their path. Vinegar will do it.
I’ve used peppermint oil, which is very strong smelling so I guess that’s how it works, then.
If it helps, let me tell you how much I love your images….I love your images….
Thank you Elenacaravela… What a great name fit for an artist.
Another very cool series and theme. Love the skull and the fallen tree. The first image of the auto is pretty amazing. I like the angle of that shot. Makes me feel like it will roll away at any moment.
And the mouse? Just give him a name and let him be. Despereaux sounds like a good name. 🙂
I would name the mouse Mental…He who gives Bad Dreams. But I am sure there are more than one of these creatures here.
I agree with Terry. Live and let live. At least for one small mouse. Actually, I’m pretty sure there isn’t just one small mouse. There’s probably at least 20, wondering where their little bro disappeared to.

My thoughts exactly … I am dealing with the gang.
I agree to name the mouse and let him go alive and well. There are cruelty free traps out there. I don’t believe in killing. All have a right to a safe and good life.
Ach, humans!
Love your pics. Hope you get better soon.
I am all for the little creatures but not in my home. I have a pest situation going on. Now it would be sweet if they just left.
Beautiful and terrific images! I suggest you a clever cat…
A hungry cat is a clever cat
Your pics feel appropriate given your current state of mind. I’d love to see the mouse (alive) take a grand place on your blog, then released to the great outdoors. 😉
I told the mouse to leave… But no, it was chewing like crazy through the aluminum foil all night long.
Random thoughts: get a good photo of the critter. I know a stock photo agency in N.Y.C. that pays big bucks for wild animal photos—enough to send both kids to college.
What is the agency called?
This seems like the perfect thing for me!
And so you know of any places I could send wildflower photos to?
Those are my speciality 🙂
Oh, and I also have this fantastic picture of my two dogs playing in the setting sun of Tollhouse.
I would love to enter my photos into competitions or agencies!
Any suggestions would be appreciated!
It’s true that mice are exceedingly cute. Still, they can be carriers for diseases that you don’t want to be exposed to. We have cats, very effective for catching/repelling mice, but in parts of our property where the cats don’t go, a variation of this trap has worked nicely.

We’re in a rural area, so it’s easy to take them far from any house to release them in the prairie. No fear, no hate, just taking them to a different place, suitable for them to live.
Oh, also I would be fascinated to see how you would depict the mouse you catch.
Ugh. That’s a lot to deal with. Hang in there! Love the photos!
My cat only eats the heads of mice for some reason, maybe because they are crunchy with a chewy center……
Your b/w photos echo my dreams so often – powerful and evocative…
Very nice shots!
mouse!!!!!! arrrr
Love this post!
The first picture is wonderful!
Reblogged this on The Three G's.
Your images for this post are very dramatic. Maybe the mouse was actually a muse?
Adrenalin does strange things…
Thank you for reposting!
I absolutely love the photo of the skull and the twisted tree branches. I really could see those two hanging up in my home. I found your site last night and I am in love with your iPhotography.
