The Tiny One.
D300S + 600mm AFS II f4D.
1/160 @ f4.
Ex Comp -1.0EV.
ISO:200.
WB: Direct Sunlight.

Its difficult to judge the size of this little Leveret the only thing being the size of the pieces of flint scattered around.
It seems rather a harsh way for a youngster to be left but that is nature and at the moment because of the colouration of these guys they are favouring this perticular field.
I suspect by the time I visit again that this field will be drilled with Sugar Beet and the texture etc will be lost.

Very nice picture Major , I often wonder what goes through the minds of our subjects. This one clearly is looking at the camera, “should I run or should I stay”, now what did mum say ?.

That's an early one Major, they don't seem to turn up around here until the silage collecting starts (which is exactly the wrong time unfortunately). Lovely shot :toast:

Excellent Major - a difficult creature to photograph, so you have done exceedingly well here.

A little warm for me major, however the main point is, as Mark quite rightly expressed, 'Its got to be respected the skill necessary to get a shot like this' spot on.

Congrats Major :toast:

Perfect image. Not too often do you see the leverets pictured as opposed to the adults.
