Vespertilio pipistrellus} [Bat or Backie].
Vespertilio Daubentonii }
These are both to be found here. The first is the most common. It appears that we have another species of bat here. It is larger than either of the other two. I have met with it in our woods.
Sciurus vulgaris [Squirrel].
It is only of late that this agile and tricky little quadruped has become domiciled in this county.
Myoxus avellanarius [Dormouse].
I am not quite sure whether we have this animal or not; I think I have taken it, but am not able to ascertain the fact with certainty.
Mus musculus [Common Mouse].
There is no doubt about this sly little domestic. Specimens of various colours—such as white, gray stripped with white, reddish, and yellow—sometimes occur. Musical individuals of the genus are not infrequent. See [p. 110].
Mus sylvaticus [Long-tailed or Wood Mouse].
Is to be found in almost every conceivable situation, except in towns.
