Water Voles

The water voles at the British Wildlife Centre

my cat brought one into the house today. fortunately I saved it from the cat and took it out again. I didn't know it was a vole I thought s/he was a mouse. not sure if I should have taken the vole to the waters edge s/he pressed his/her nose against the glass as I carried him/her out . really cute.

i saw a small mammal swimming in the river stour today, im trying to research what mammal it was, i saw it as i crossed the bridge, it swam slower than these water voles but would have been the same size roughly, it climbed out of the water using a low hanging branch from a bush along the bank and scurried off, it was a dark colour, it did have a tail . anybody who might know what it was?
