Sleeping Beauty - Hazel Dormouse Finds the Perfect Hideout Amongst Leaves and Acorns!
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this enchanting snapshot captured by wildlife photographer Danny Green, we witness the magical world of a hibernating Hazel Dormouse. Nestled amidst a cozy bed of fallen leaves and acorns, this adorable little creature has found its winter sanctuary in Leicestershire, UK. With its tiny paws delicately curled up and furry body wrapped snugly around itself, the dormouse appears completely oblivious to the outside world. Its peaceful slumber is a testament to nature's ability to provide comfort even in the harshest of seasons. The hazel dormice are native to Western Europe, including Great Britain, where they have become beloved symbols of cuteness and charm. These small rodents belong to the Gliridae family and are known for their exceptional hibernation skills. As we admire this close-up shot, we can't help but marvel at the intricate details of its soft fur blending seamlessly with surrounding foliage. The dormant dormouse seems like a part of nature's tapestry itself! So let us celebrate this moment frozen in time - an exquisite reminder that beauty lies not only in grand landscapes but also in the tiniest corners of our natural world.
