I saw this Brown Hare while at Cley in Norfolk. It spent a good time chasing around the surrounding fields. Nothing unusual you'd think about that, but then it did something I've never seen a Hare do before. It got into the water and swam from one side to the other. It really shocked me, and had me watching open mouthed.
Not where you'd usually expect to see a Brown Hare.
This Stoat came back to see if I was really watching him. I sure was, and I knew he'd pop his head back up.
Hello,
ReplyDeleteI have never seen a hare or rabbit swim, that is odd. The Stoat is a cute critter. Great collection of photos. Thank you for linking up and sharing your post. Take care, have a happy weekend!
The brown hare is really great!
ReplyDeleteI also looked at your photos with open mouth! Is that really a hare? I really didn't know they can swim!
Nature can always surprise us!
Beautiful pictures! Thank you!
These are beautiful photos Adam.
ReplyDeleteI didn't know they could swim either, learned something again.
Watch out and stay healthy.
I love seeing the hare in action! And what a great shot of the stoat!
ReplyDeleteNice photos! Now we all long for spring!
ReplyDeleteI've never seen a rabbit swimming! He looks a bit startled!
ReplyDeleteNever saw a hare swim! Look forwards to spring now. Maybe the birds and animals do too, but they will be very busy!
ReplyDeleteNice shots!
ReplyDeleteinteresting wildlife today. A swimming hare? Never heard of it but you have proof.
ReplyDeleteThe Stoat seem to be a very curious one :)
Unbelievable! I didn't realize that they could swim! That stoat is so cute!(💖 your photos).
ReplyDeleteA Stoat...well I never! I didn't even know there was such a thing but it is SO cute! I'm going to search for it to learn more! I love it!
ReplyDeleteI too have never heard of a hate swimming! Thanks for sharing this post Adam

Typo alert: hare
DeleteI saw the first photo and thought that is one funny looking bird! I didn't know rabbits swam but I don't know lots of things about wildlife. I have read about stoats and I'm not sure I've ever seen a photo before. Wonder if they are called something else or are not here in US? Just googled and they are weasels - well only seen photos of weasels too!
ReplyDeleteLove the stoat! I don't believe we have them here. Do folks ever make pets of them? They remind me of ferrets.
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing at https://image-in-ing.blogspot.com/2021/02/cedar-creek-galleries-not-your-average.html
Had no idea a hare could swim! Interesting. Love how the stoat is looking right at you. Hope your new week is off to a great start!
ReplyDeleteAlong with everyone else I've never seen a hare or a rabbit swimming.
ReplyDeleteThat hare shot is exceptional. Excellent work. You should enter it into a competition
ReplyDeleteI've never seen a brown hare before. Really great photos! Thank you!
ReplyDeleteI have never seen a stoat before.
ReplyDeleteWorth a Thousand Words
