I haven't seen a hare since I moved into town a couple of years ago. I used to live in the sticks and there used to be one (I'm sure it was always the same hare
) who hopped along the country lanes ahead of me when I went running early in the morning.

Yep, last Saturday, OH saw a couple in a field 1 mile from Beckhampton roundabout, they weren't boxing.
Last one I saw was sitting on the Avenue near Stonehenge.

i saw 2 last month walking my dogs in the fields and one ran past me about 10ft away all 3 dogs went into terrier mode and bolted to give chase called them back in ( to my surprize they came ) just about to put the first lead on and b****r me if another didn't go by closer so off they went again
. Thank god again they came back no probs.
I'd rather regret the things i've done than regret not doing them at all.Comment

Saw one on Leicester indoor market today.... which I guess means they must be active.

Haven't seen any hares but did spot an 'unseasonally' early bumble bee this week!Comment

There are quite a lot of hares both in and around the farm I grow on, but haven't spotted any yet this year - last year I had three hares and leverets in my field - will happily shoot most birds and animals that threaten my crops but will make two exceptions - hares and grey partridges.Rat

Saw one here in Tingwall last week still with its winter coat on - pure white! Stood out like a sore thumb on the (sort of) green hill.~
Aerodynamically the bumblebee shouldn't be able to fly, but the bumblebee doesn't know that so it goes on flying anyway.

Not seen the hares about locally yet (usually see them in the fields hereaboutrs from March onwards), but plenty of wabbits, we've frogspawn in the pond on plot 1 and daffs are definitely flowering on the plots! Seems spring is just about here!

We usually see them on the local grass fields but haven't been that end of the village lately. There's no end of strutting pheasants about though!Whoever plants a garden believes in the future.

I've never seen any hares locally but we did once almost trip over one sitting in it's hollow on a golf course at a hotel we were staying at!Into every life a little rain must fall.Comment

I'll keep my eyes peeled tomorrow as we're venturing to Suffolk, always seem to see more of them there than here in Essex for some reason!Comment
