Mouse Arrest


Last week, I found some new mouse droppings on the back porch. Set a trap. Within two hours I had a nice dead mouse in it.

It was actually pretty artistic. The trap was on a beam slightly off the floor. The mouse had gotten caught in such a way that the trap was turned perpendicular to the beam, and the mouse was kind of standing (hanging from it), looking up. There was no blood visible on the mouse, but there was a perfect little pool of bright red blood right next to him. I almost took a photo, it was so serene. But that's kind of morbid, I guess.
