AN adorable little mouse peeks out after climbing inside a tulip.

The hungry harvest mouse crawled inside the tulip flower to eat the stamen inside.


The sweet snaps were captured by photographer Miles Herbert near his home in sunny Bournemouth.

Miles, 57, said: “The mouse looks so smug having climbed in there and got food.

“She can be seen eating stamens, then cleaning herself to remove some pollen and water before climbing out of the tulip.

“Mice are the smallest UK rodent and the only British mammal to have a prehensile tail to help it climb up stalks and branches.

“This agility makes it easy for them to climb the flower stems.
