Brown Hare...
20D, 300/4 + 1.4, ISO400, 1/500 @ f8, Car as hide....

Hi,

Spent a long time today scouting out feeder locations, ready for the winter period, no luck yet, (working in London I look at 3 to 4 hours a day commuting, I leave in the dark and get back home in the dark).

On my way back home I took a trip onto Sheppey, only to be greeted by a co-operative Hare, albeit into nthe light..

All The best

Phil

They do love Picris. How they manage to eat the stuff is beyond me.

Nice alert pose.

Is that a hare, or a man in a suit? Have to agree, he's a well fed chap. Like this a lot. Either your processing was spot on, or you had nice soft light to work with. Visiting Sheppey this week - Do you have any pointers for good locations for birds or mammals? :toast: :toast:
