Mountain Hare.

Posted on April 29, 2013 by Phil Mclean

I took Ollie for a drive up across the Lammermuir Hills,hoping to find something co-operative to photograph.This little splash of white caught my eye,a small pocket of remaining snow was my first instinctive thought.But no.Double take as I’m slowly driving by.Quickly pull in,check the mirrors,no other cars and then manoever into position to photograph this beautiful mountain hare.The hare was very kind to me and allowed me to reposition the car several times and so I managed a good few images before it got bored and wandered off through the heather.

Here are some of the images.

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.
