Compost-dwelling critters
Lucky we have a new compost bin. Adam went to turn the old heap with his big ol' spikey fork, and we found that there was a family of field voles living in our compost heap! The baby ones were about 2 inches long, but they ran around a bit so I couldn't get a picture of them. Here's one I nabbed off the internet, so anyone who doesn't know what a field vole looks like can join in with the collective 'aaaahhhhh, how sweet'.
