Brown Hare
30.03.2016 Day 2
I knew this would happen, I'm obsessed already! I've been back to watch the Hares again tonight.
Fascinating creatures. It is no wonder I have not seen them before, apart from once chance encounter. They lie so low in the grass with literally an ear visible at best. I only saw this when it turned its head and the sun caught it.
Tonight there was one lying low in its form to the right of the gate. Just moving it's head occasionally. It was the only one I could see after scanning the field. The very second the sun set over the horizon another rose from my left and started heading from left to right across the field directly towards the other one. It was quite bold as it headed across the field and didn't appear bothered by my presence. The two Hares ran around in circles chasing each other before disappearing through the hedge into field 1.
I'm just going to watch from a distance on my next few visits to see what they do and where there go so I can get myself nearer hopefully.
