It's great to see water vole droppings because they're fairly unmistakable. The pay prints look nice and starry too, which is an indication of vole rather than brown rat.
This blog charts the fortunes of water voles in and around the Whitchurch area, North Shropshire. Water voles are one of the UK's most threatened mammals, extinct in many counties, and so it's vital they receive as much monitoring and protection as there is going. Here in Whitchurch we're lucky enough to have them right in the middle of town - how cool is that?
