The mammal and the mollusc went eyeball to eyestalk on a twig in a garden.
Both seemed shocked by the encounter with the mouse freezing and the snail blowing defensive bubbles.

But all ended well with the snail giving the mouse a kiss.
It was videoed by photographer Gez Robinson in Norfolk.
“My friend lets his harvest mice climb around in the garden,” wildlife lover Gez told What’s The Jam.
“And I film them from a distance, and sometimes I capture amazing moments like this.
“The mouse is called Mr Jingles, and he just came across the snail.

“But I love capturing these moments.”
Gez has a wildlife haven in his own back garden in Rotherham, South Yorkshire.
He built homes for mice there and regularly videos them going about their lives.
