Advice please. House mouse or Field mouse? Do i need to take action (as in removing bird feed for a while), bearing in mind I live in a new build residential area (50 yard from a meadow that is yet to be built on so bound to be mice around)

It's not very clear but it looks like it's got a white/grey belly which means it's a Field Mouse (House Mice are uniformly grey/brown). Size of rear feet also suggests a Field Mouse.

That's what I thought FF. It went and hid behind the decking board but let me get like half a yard away but lens was then too close.

Do you reckon I need to remove the bird feed for a while or are field mice less of a worry?
