March Hare
« on: March 26, 2007, 15:40:39 »
Having seen some hares in the field ajoining my garden, I went and got my camera.  Only one was there when I returned but I was amazed that when I stood still, it kept coming closer to me.  Unfortunately the fence got in the way of what would have been very good close ups.  As soon as I moved though to get a better picture, it took off up the field.

Aw Pauline those pictures are fantastic. You definately can see what you mean about him (it!) coming closer.

It is a pity about the fence in the last picture, but I think the fence makes the first two look authentic , rustic and true wildlife pictures. You know...caught on the hop sort of thing! They show exactly how you explained it happened.

That second picture is fabulous. I love it.

I haven't seen a hare for ages. Will you try to take some more pictures? Pleeease!

how fantastic! I think heldi is right, the fence adds to the 'wildlife' aspect of the pic. What a lovely boy. He kept coming closer because.....he is mad!
Don't throw paper away. There is no away.

Greyhound attracted by reference to hares ....  ;D

A couple of years ago I was out picking sloes and I actually stepped on a hare - put my foot right on him.  He was off like greased lightning, immediately followed by

but she lost him in the woods.
