These are from yesterday (today was largely a washout). They were taken on the small road that surrounds Falmer Pond. The rat scampered out from the bushes and ran across the road in front of me. A few moments later it crossed back, and disappeared into the vegetation at the edge of the pond.
First one way (away from the pond)…
Then the other (back to the pond)…
… and to the safety of the bank.
