When they’re in our homes and eating our food, most consider field mice to be repulsive pests. But out in their native fields and woodlands, tiny mice are about as cute as it gets.
Because of their size (and perhaps also due to jealousy of their adorable looks), there are a lot of things out to get the cute mice, including the internet’s favorite mouse-slaying terror, the common house cat. But because of their adaptability and speed, they are still one of the most wide-spread and successful mammal species on Earth – these adorable animals can be found in almost any environment and on almost every continent. And this large population is exactly what makes them an easy target for great animal photography shots.
Harvest mice certainly are cute and harmless in their natural environments, but they can be devastating pests when introduced to new environments. In parts of New Zealand and Australia, the absence of natural predators allows them to breed unchecked and devastate local crops and bird populations. Many birds were able to nest safely in the South Pacific islands until mice were introduced there by European explorers.
Pest or a tiny fluff ball – it’s for you to decide after looking at the adorably cute photos below!

I absolutely love all of these but the daisy one is my favorite because I love daisies. I would like to get that print.
