Field notes
What to look for
The world's smallest carnivore: a mouse-sized weasel, brown above and white below, with a short tail that has no black tip. Pure white in winter.
Where
Grassland, meadows and forest openings with voles; rarely noticed anywhere.
When
Year-round but seldom seen; sometimes uncovered under hay bales or spotted crossing snow.
Tips
Tiny, and the tail is short and entirely one colour. Any weasel with a black tail tip is one of the other two.
