I saw this hare from my window today and walked very quietly outside with my camera.  I managed to get one picture before it saw me but then sight of me made it scurry towards the top of the field.   :D

Great shots Pauline!!!  :D I'm always amazed at just how quickly hares move - especially when I try to get a piccie!!  ::)

Great pics pauline....I love hares ;D ;D

Pauline. Lovely picture. Thank you .

Lovely pic Pauline. I haven't seen a hare for years  :(

I've onl ever seen hares on the T.V or in photos- never in the flesh! I need to get out more.... ;D

I see hares in the fields most days - much more often than I see rabbits.
Depends where you live I think - they have almost disappeared from the West Country, but are much more common in East Anglia.

They have an amazing turn of speed - I'm sure they could outrun a horse over short distances - well done for getting a photo.

They've always been scarce in the West Country; I lived in Cornwall for 8 1/2 years back in the '80's, in what would have been good hare country anywhere else, and only saw two the whole time.

I always think about Hartley whenever I think about hares. Wonder if they are all little ratbags like he was?! ;D

It is my mission to see a hare this year!

We had one residing on the plot last year - ran clean through my hands when I was weeding!  Didn't half make me jump!  They were clearing back some of the common - coppicing the woods and trying to drive the deer away from the main roads, and the hares moved with the deer....only a hell of a lot faster! 

Great photo Paulline!

well spotted p7 :)
