We've certainly been fortunate enough to have some outstanding hare images lately on the forum, with this one being no exception. Very nice.

Im not always in car Danny. Last week I waited & waited and the B's wouldnt come close so I decided to go to them.
Donned my bag hide and hoisted my gitzo and 600mm set up above the ground and crepted towards them. The only trouble was I found muscles I never knew I had. I was feeling a bit stif by the time I got home. On Monday I could hardly walk. :biggrin: :biggrin: :biggrin:

Lol Know the feeling. These hare shots are great. You have soil there that is just the right colour for the background.

Another fine shot Major, just a little soft on the eye. Crawling sniper style makes you realise how fit and strong those army guys really are!!!! Know how you felt Major! :toast:
