Wild Good Friday Hare --- NEW frames posts 11 & 12

[Gav.]

Hi all

Not sure who was more surprised early this morning

I dropped to the floor like a sack of muck when I saw the ears over the grass heading my way, I then had a very cold & wet reminder the field is still a bog .. the poor thing was about to run past until the mirror slap stopped it in it's tracks. It stayed for a minute before deciding the hop into the grass and head back around the other way.

Thank you for looking, C&C welcome as always.

Taken just before the sun light started to flood the area.

1/800 - f5.6 - ISO 8000 - 600mm FF

Thank you, Dale, not 100% but only a few metres, this is about 95% of the RAW, I took a tad of the right and top only

Just done some 'tests' using the cat, I think the Hare would have been around 13-15 mtrs away?

Always wanted to know myself, so was just the kick up the backside to go try and find out

Fabulous shots Gav. I had a similar encounter yesterday but wasn’t quick enough to get the shot.

Thank you, I was walking ready... should have seen the Barn owl capture fail just before

They're all just too flaming fast

Wow, great image - but for some reason I do find those eyes disconcerting. Worth a bit of bog snorkelling though eh?
