      @Javan Rhino will try and find out any way for you by taking a photograph of ALL the small mammals in the collection

      It will not help him as they have had a move round,since JR visited and seeing as he visited with me last and I have been since he has last visited,but a very nice offer any way.

      @ JR its a Woodland Dormouse I remember you having problem getting a photo because they wouldn't stay still!!

      Thanks zg, better memory than me, though now you've mentioned it I do recall :p

      Glad I've started taking notes now, was going through some recent sortings and it took me minutes rather than days :p

      @Javan Rhino I must admit I take a photograph of the sign on the enclosure but this can still lead to wrong naming of species as some collections move the animals but not the signs.

      Sorry to drag this up but it seems from the order of my pics that the attached was taken sometime before this picture, wondering if this is also a woodland dormouse.

      Also, is the second attachment an Acacia rat?

      Looks like it to me!
