This is so cute lol
1:42 pm on 9 January 2024
By Charlie Buckland, BBC News
Despite being an avid wildlife photographer, retired postman Rodney Holbrook never expected to capture a Ratatouille-style scene unfolding in his own shed.
After regularly discovering that things from the night before had been mysteriously tidied, he set up a night vision camera on his workbench.
It captured a mouse picking up clothes pegs, corks, nuts and bolts.
He has since nicknamed the well-kept rodent Welsh Tidy Mouse.
The 75-year-old from Builth Wells, Powys, said the tidying ritual had been going on for two months.
"At first I noticed that some food that I was putting out for the birds was ending up in some old shoes I was storing in the shed," he said.
"Ninety nine times out of 100 the mouse will tidy up throughout the night.
"It is incredible really that they put them all back in the box, I think it's possible that they enjoy it."
Holbrook believes the mouse is using the objects to hide away nuts, and so far the arrangement has been working in his favour.
"I don't bother to tidy up now, I leave things out of the box and they put it back in its place by the morning," he said.
"I think he would tidy my wife away if I left her in there." (LOL at him saying this!)
No object seems to trouble the mouse either, as it has even been caught carrying cable ties to the pot.
"It's been a bit of an experiment really, I've added different things to the desk to see if they can lift it," said Holbrook.
It is not the first time he has come across an organised rodent.When living in Bristol in 2019, his friend reached out for help fixing up a night camera when another mouse was keeping their shed in order.
"That one video went viral and reached people around the world," he said,
"So I can't believe here in Builth Wells we have had the same thing happen years later."

Little mouse Izuku au, they find Izuku but see a dead hawk. Turns out Izuku's teeth are very sharp.
Nezu is laughing manically, while Izuku trying to stand in front of the hawk because he's pretty sure killing things is bad. Inko is crying with relief and actively considering making a hawk-down pillow. Nasty nasty bird trying to hurt her baby!
7 years in the future, Izuku meets pro hero Hawks and has to stop himself from tearing his throat out in pure reflex. Hawks just wants to know why the principal and his - assistant? Lawyer? Co-Parent? Hate him so much. He's never met them before!

“I call him Welsh Tidy Mouse,” said wildlife photographer Rodney Holbrook after capturing on camera a mouse clearing up his shed almost every night for two months.
Holbrook, a retired postman from Builth Wells in Powys, Wales, set up a night vision camera on his shed workbench after noticing that objects were being mysteriously tidied away, and captured footage reminiscent of the 2007 animated movie Ratatouille, where a rodent secretly cooks at a restaurant.
The seemingly conscientious rodent was spotted gathering clothes pegs, corks, nuts and bolts, and placing them in a tray on his workbench.

And here we were thinking gnomes doing it diligently every night LOL
