Brown Hares at Stichill, Scottish Borders

Another sunny day again today, still very cold with temperatures around freezing all day. A good day again for brown hares. I found a small group of three very close to the village of Stichill. They were looking like they might have started boxing, but sadly not. A flock of sheep came across the field and spooked the hares. I did manage to get some reasonable picture though. Here are some of them………..

About Ron McCombe

I live in the Scottish Borders near Coldstream and like to photograph the local wildlife. Northumberland and South East Scotland have an abundance of natural history with sites such as Bass Rock, The Farne Islands, Holy Island and the Lammermuir Hills. I have also traveled extensively throughout Europe, visiting Norway Sweden, Finland, Poland and Spain. I have also traveled the USA and Canada. But I have to say I prefer Scotland, the lowlands, the highland and islands, Scotland has an abundance of wildlife to be photographed and enjoyed. I like to visit the Isle of Mull when I can, the wildlife and the scenery is stunning, some great species here to photograph, white tailed eagles, otters and red deer to name but a few. You should come along and take a look Ron
