    The Brown Hare seems to be enjoying a healthy status at the moment in areas round about us Rolf. I easily saw at least 16 a few days ago in an area close to home where I walked about 2 miles one afternoon last year and counted 32.

    Would be interested to learn from some source of its national status.

    Pete.

    Yes, bigger than I'd imagined, was out yesterday and spotted what I thought were Mole hills in a couple of fields, they were of course Hares, managed to get a couple more photos.
