Whack a Vole!

This morning as I was gazing out my front door I noticed a rustling in the grass....VOLES! The rain and the cooler temps brought them out of hiding. They would poke their little heads out their holes and quickly retreat. It reminded me of the game Whack-A-Mole. I attempted to get some pictures of the little critters. Here they are, can you spot them? (If you click on the pictures, you can view them full size)

He's poking his head out to see if the coast is clear.

He was rustling in some dead grass here.

Just a glimpse

We added some peanut butter into one of their "trenches" to see if they have a taste for it. Once we have the appropriate bait, we'll load some traps and whack some voles.
