Hi @CorinPennock , it looks a bit like like a House Mouse or New Holland Mouse. Any other views?
Small mammals are frequently hard to identify from photos because scale is unclear and people often omit diagnostic body parts such as: the tail (hair pattern and scale pattern can be diagnostic); the ratio of tail length to head-body length; the pads under the rear feet, colour of underside, number of teats, colour of skin and fur on feet, and length of toenails. cheers, Don
