As soon as the sun set at Rainbow Valley our campsite was invaded by hoards of mice. When I says hoards i mean 40-50 mice at a time in one field of view.
We were sitting in our chairs eating T bone steaks from Millner meats and enjoying a cold bevvie. We started to see little dark shadows emerging from the grass and bushes. Before we knew it there were mice under our chairs, crawling over our feet, running in and under the car, everywhere.
We threw down one of our finished T bones and the mice went nuts. There was a constant stream of mice attacking the bone and scaring each other and jumping about around the bone. We could actually stand next to the bone and catch the mice with a box they were so hungry.
Eventually when the bone was stripped clean we saw a few larger naive hopping mice. We did not have the camera out unfortunately but they were very cute and a lot bigger.
Mice jumping in all directions keen for the meat
OMG, so scary when the flash goes off.
Just hanging on for a good feed
No good for me. I would have been screaming and jumping around. Yuk!
