Yesterday we had about 6 baby rats running about in our front garden. It was only midday so I think we can confidently say we must have a lot of rats around (understandable on a farm!).
Here is a photo of some in the gateway to illustrate how tiny they were:
They were bold as brass all day, but we haven't seen any sign of them since (apart from a dead one on the lawn) so it seems likely that they didn't survive the night.
