I like this one even better than your previous Keith, agree the HA is better, the wrapped tail and those dangling feet are priceless and what makes the image for me, nicely seen again.

Hi Keith i agree with Marc that this one looks better on all counts .
Super series of yours , love it.
I might just get rid of the darker blob in the corner .
Keith - I only want to photograph mice now, mice and poppies, that is!
I really like this, besides from being funny it is a great behavioural shot. That tail wrapped around the flower and those little pink feet dangling in-between kept me glued to the screen for a while now. And I am smiling from ear to ear.
Well processed and the colours are great. Hmmm...I agree with Andreas, the dark blob does not belong:) Perhaps it might have been good to have had more stem in the frame? How about you try a vertical shot to emphasise the height of the flowers? This would add more drama in terms of the "risks" the subject is taking to get to the top.
Great techs and PP work overall, truly enjoyed viewing, I want more please:)
Thank you Marc and Andreas pleased you are enjoying my Mice ,Thanks a lot Gabriela,I have a lot more will see if I can crop them like you suggest,promise I will post more as long as I,m not boring every one ,would love to get one hanging on that prehensile tail
Hi Keith -- this is fantastic , agree with the above comments , the image is much better than the previous frame. looks good on all counts including the techs . Very nicely done.
Hi Keith - I agree, the HA is better here. PP looks good and again it is a fun image with the mouse hanging in midair. I also like that we can see the front foot clinging to the flower. Don't crop to vertical, shoot some in vertical orientation in the field.
Keith it's a gem! Love it, such an appealing little mouse (my wife wouldn't agree) I love the way he is struggling to get a grip, hope you have some more!... or if you don't I hope you will be taking some!
Thanks a lot Jon ,my wife is the same as yours so I hope and pray they stay down the garden,I will get the blame which ever species they are.Very pleased you like it.
Hey Keith,howareyamate? Wow this is an absolute corker just love it buddy the behaviour, the tail, the dangling legs ,it's wonderful Keith. Oh mate, I for one will never tire of your mice,I know how you feel: me and hares all the time of late ,but I just adore these captures!! Always have since first seeing them,please share more buddy. Mind as much as i've always liked them this one for me is very special.
So the next will be hanging by it's tail shot in portrait I think you have a challenge on your hands my friend
Hey Keith, As noted above, this is an outstanding image. How did you get so close? Moving two feet to your right would have helped you to better parallel the subject. With love, artie

Artie sorry about the time replying to your kind comment which is much appreciated but had a little holiday."How did you get so close?" if I give myself plenty of time and sit very still they soon take very little notice of you and of course it's hardly a chore watching these little mice with there great climbing skills which I really enjoy.
