I’ve been slowly driving around the back roads of Berwickshire,looking for any brown hare activity.Up here in the Borders there are still a mixture of stubble,ploughed and newly seeded fields and I’ve seen a good number of hares lying up in the ploughed field furrows in the middle of the day.There’s still not much friskiness going on but pictures can still be had.
Here’s a few,along with a couple of other subjects I came across in my travels.
She says she's got a headache.
Late afternoon sunlight.
Having a stretch.
Hunting over rough pasture.
This male was hunting along the hedgerow.
Come back soon,there’ll be more.
About Phil Mclean
Hi, my name is Phil Mclean.
I'm a nature photographer living in Berwickshire,in the Scottish Borders.I enjoy photographing all aspects of nature,from the birds and the bees,to the mammals and the trees.
I just love being out in the countryside whenever possible and preferably with a camera.
Although I do make it difficult for myself,as I'm normally accompanied by my photographic assistant, Ollie,my springer spaniel dog.
I hope you'll enjoy the pictures that I post and if you have the time and the inclination,please leave a comment.
Thanks.
