As I was driving down the road yesterday, I spotted this furry little mole snuffling around on someone's lawn. Of course, I slammed on my brakes and jumped out to snap a few shots - he stopped for a moment to work out whether I was dangerous, and then, evidently deciding that I wasn't, happily went on with what he was doing.I'm sure the owner of the garden wasn't quite as pleased as I was though - when I drove past on my way back about 7 minutes later, the mole had disappeared underground, and in his place on the lawn was a lovely large pile of soil. :)

He does not look so little to me ;-)
Nice catch!
Great find. He's a cute almost creepy little guy ;)
What a funny little thing! Isn't it supposed to be afraid of light?
We have a story about moles but I won't bore you with the details of my wife drowning one. It is a curious picture because most people never see one above ground.
I can say that I have a grease sandwich recipe under a Canada Goose.
Wow.... you were driving and you spotted this?
Were you concentrating on the road? hehe..
glad you jam break to take this photo for us!
I know they're pests but so, so cute. I probably wouldn't say that if it were my lawn.

that is an unusual looking creature! I am surprised they can dig a hole so fast and ez! You must have good eyes to have spotted this !
>kala, I wear contact lenses, so yes my eyes are pretty good, but not naturally... :)
>keropok man, I promise I was concentrating on the road - apparently women have better peripheral vision than men, so I'll use that as my excuse. ;)
Cute little thing! I have seen plenty of mounds of soil but no mole yet!
