Hare in our yard






We had a hare in our yard early one morning.
First it was having a sand bath under the swings.
Then it started scratching and cleaning itself.
It must have seen me moving in the window,
because it looked right at me and jumped away.
These photos were taken through the
window and the blinds on 26.6.2015.

  15. Isn't it odd how they seem to sense that we are near. Even through the window. Part of nature, I guess.

  19. We just have little bunnies, the hare looks so much bigger with longer ears and legs. Does he do a lot of damage to your plants? He is really funny waving his ears around.

    1. Thank you, Hannah! I've seen him eat leaves from the bushes, but mostly he seems to enjoy the clover in the lawn.

  22. That's so unusual, a Brown Hare in a yard. The hares around here are extremely wary and never go near humans.

  27. What a cute hare. I'm always surprised that animals can spot you in a window, no matter how still you are.

  29. We have rabbits in our yard every day. We enjoy having them but they sure can do a lot of damage to the vegetation. We planted Butterfly Milkweed for the pollinators, but as soon as it starts to grow the rabbits chew it off right to the ground.

    1. Thank you, David! It seems we have enough clover in the lawn to keep him from eating other plants.

  30. A super study of your handsome hare. When we had clover growing in our yard we were always visited by rabbits. Sad to say when the clover left, so did our rabbits :(

    1. Thank you, Denise! We've had a hare in the garden for several summers. I think it's the clover that attracts them.

  31. Very interesting photo study of the hare. We do not have hares in Florida, though we did have Jackrabbits when we lived in New Mexico and Texas.
