Brown Hare.
A couple of images from my trip to Norfolk back in April.
I really do love being there. Just a shame that Right To Roam isn't a thing...

No, they're not Easter Bunnies... These bouncy brown #hares were painted in the first lockdown spring, when their were no distractions and the #paintings seemed to pour out of me!
I hope you're having a peaceful #GoodFriday. Goodness knows we need some peace in the world...Greetings cards of #hares here : https://janetomlinson.com/products/brown-hares-greetings-cards

Birding walk this morning (new hat working well) and I failed to think of getting my camera out for the deer, but here are some hares, a red kite and a fieldfare. None of which are ducks.

Brown Hare
A rim lit shot of one, scampering across a meadow as the sun set behind. As seen this week in North Norfolk.

Brown Hare
Pausing for a moment in a resident's yard. Soon scampered off, at pace, into another meadow.

Brown Hare
Great to see two scampering around the local countryside here in the Scottish Highlands.
This one paused close by, which was nice!

Spot the winter hare.
Brown hares are common here; I usually see several on my walks, and in the snow their tracks are everywhere. Unlike mountain hares, they don't turn white in winter, so they're easily spotted in the frost.
Hares feature heavily in British folklore. Appearing mostly at dusk, with their big ears and eyes, and their gangling legs, there's something otherworldly about them as they slip along the hedgerows on their secret paths.
Several tales tell of witches able to transform themselves into hares; this belief seems to go back at least as far as the 17th century, as it was told in the Somerset witchcraft trial of Julian Cox in 1663. The Northumbrian story of Nancy Scott of Acklington is similar, except that in Nancy's case, she outwitted the huntsman and survived.
Was Nancy, a folkloric figure for whom no evidence exists, based on Julian? Or was the story used to convict Julian simply based on popular beliefs about shapeshifting witches and hares of the time?
Another Border tale tells us of the time the great wizard, Michael Scot, was turned into a hare against his will by an old farmer's wife practising witchcraft.
So treat the big-eyed hare with respect, for you never know who you're dealing with!

Brown Hare.
For a few years, I would spend a week each spring over in North Norfolk, to immerse myself in the wildlife of the area.
Early mornings would be spent looking for hares and barn owls, and on this particular day, I found a group of hares near a small farm.
Using my car as a hide, I watched and waited, and was delighted when one of them scampered down a track towards me.
