A real youngster.
D3 + 600mm AFS II f4D.
1/250 @ f4.
ISO:400>
WB: Auto.
Ex Comp: -0.3EV.
Two droppings cloned out and cropped to suit.

Sat watching these youngsters along with young Hares interacting with each other. Never seen them do this before.
Hare would run up to Rabbit and almost touch noses then jump back and do a twizzle and run off hotly persude by the young Rabbits.
Great fun to observe.
Those are the remains of dandelions in its wiskers.

:smile: Great little capture Major and you can't go wrong with that subject, always a winner.. Love the detail and the 'cheekiness' added by the seeds on the whiskers.. Nicely done.
