Four legs or more?
28th May 2021
When hares decide to run at you there is no time to think so unless you are camera ready the shot could be game over very quickly.
So when you have got up at 4am, been laying down in a cold, damp rut for a couple of hours waiting for one friendly hare to come rolling along, its tough when the shot that you thought you had planned for doesn't quite work out.
In this instance I had a lovely female hare gentling nibbling her way along the tramlines towards me when another hare leapt out from the crop and chased up behind her. As I quickly had to change a camera setting the second hare came in and out of focus behind her, often making it seem as though it was one hare with double the leg count.
Ah well, better luck tomorrow maybe!
