Sounds large for a vole. When it comes to the mole/vole scene it is necessary
to know which one one is dealing with. Moles don't eat irises, although they
may uproot them in tunnelling for worms and grubs and such. Voles are another
story. There is a lot of very fine stuff on these subjects in the Archives
