Skilled? Yes. Clever? No. This hungry little mouse paid the price for over indulgence.
The sneaky three-inch-long field mouse managed to break into what was thought to be an impenetrable bird feeder only to find itself stuck inside.
The owner of the bird feeder has had to free the mouse on more then one occasion. It is believed the mouse burrows its way in through the tiny feeder hole which was thought to be too small for animals to get through.
The fruits of this mouse’s efforts proved to be its downfall as once the mouse had eaten its fill it was too fat to get back out.
Luckily for this rodent the owner of the bird feeder was kind enough to set it free.

The results are in, and deciding on 2010’s Ugliest Dog was no walk in the park.
Started back in 1988 the Worlds Ugliest Dog Contest has been running annually with pouting pups competing from across the globe. With no Andrex puppies in sight, this year contestants made Quasimodo and Ugly Betty look like a prom king and queen.
The Worlds Ugliest Dog Contest is based in Petaluma, California and is part of the Sonoma-Marin Fair. More than 25 dogs compete each year for a cash prize and the ugliest pup trophy.
You can see some of the contest here:
Someone still loves them!
