User's notes

At least 2, each about 10cm long (excl tail). Was working on removing weeds nearby and they ran in and out of this nest a few times. Ate some grass seeds.

Hi rbannister, It looks a bit rat like. Have you any images of the rear feet or the tail-length in relation to the body?

Hi Don, unfortunately I don't have a very clear photo of either. I've uploaded the best I've got as to visible tail length, plus a version I've marked up, but I don't have any photos of it standing away from me.
