This Mountain Hare had established a discreet hiding place and only popped into view when another Hare in the vicinity was getting all the photographers attention !
Back to the Hares!
The weather hasn't been great recently so opportunities with these guys haven't been as frequent. But they're still about and always exhilarating when they come close...
Great to get out and about while the weather is dry i came across this hare looking at me not moving checking me out lucky to get a shot of his eye
Brown Hare / lepus europaeus. Lincolnshire. 11/04/22.
'ON FULL ALERT.'
Brown Hare activity has started to ramp up now, though as yet any I've seen have been rather distant.
My image was made two years ago on a disused airfield. The hare had worked its way leisurely across the grass towards me, scenting the ground all the time. Due to this behaviour I assumed it was a buck, either trailing a doe or trying to seek one out.
This is the nearest it came to me, due the bag hide I was hidden in getting battered by strong winds and making a lot of noise! Not ideal concealment on that particular day!
BEST VIEWED LARGE.
This Brown Hare was looking very bedraggled in the heavy rain,as it was lying on the edge of this Suffolk Field.
Bucket list item for me. Always wanted to try to shoot hares, but never found the time to actually do it. Today I spent a few hours walking and looking, but found nothing. Got back in the car, drove a mile down the road and this guy was sat in a field next to me. Spent an hour watching him and waiting for him to make a move. Blurry shot at the end, but it will do for a first go and make me go back to do a better job next time.
All those interested in wildlife will know occasions like this. You walk miles trying to find wildlife and when you do it scatters in all directions. But just now and then something like this happens, the wildlife just doesn't see you - this hare just kept coming closer and closer.
Bronstige Hazen - European Brown Hares (Lepus europaeus), overzealous male in heat, chasing a female.
I photographed some hares in the UK this spring in a beautiful field. It certainly helped being completely camouflaged.
Dancing Hares is a magnificent bronze sculpture by Sophie Ryder located by the lake and glass house at The Royal Horticultural Society, Wisley Gardens, Woking, Surrey. UK
The hares are surrounded by a ring of tulips, one of the strikingly colourful displays this April 23.
If this rabbit only knew, we had no intention of causing harm. He took off as if we scared him to near death.

not the best quality but I still like it, taken from a long distance ... they were playing, chasing, leaping and boxing. had a great time observing them.

Thank you to everyone who views, faves or comments on my photos, it is always appreciated.
It was a bit muddy and wet yesterday.
These lovely hares have a wonderful unique way of running using their very powerful back legs. More of their leg positioning in different phases of their stride will be shown in future posts.
Scrub Hare, Etosha - Namibia
This cute Scrub Hare with characteristic long and thin ears laid down in a small indent in the ground under an Acacia tree and remained motionless to avoid detection when he saw our car.
Etosha means "great white place", or "place of dry water". There are some trees, bushes and some blades of grass growing here and there in Etosha. An inhospitable landscape for animal one might think, but thanks to a few scattered small waterholes, Etosha is home to many species of mammals, birds, reptiles, and insects.
