LOCAL BUTTERFLIES.

I`m posting a few images of the local butterflies,a large white on tall verbena in the garden,gatekeeper,meadow brown and large skipper down at Newton Marsh.

BROWN HARES PART THREE.

I thought I would share a bit of the the behavior that was captured with the lens.The first image is the alpha male running back to the female after chasing of a rival,for a couple of strides it bounced up and down like an african springbok showing it`s fitness to it`s rivals or enemy,

The second image I saw quite alot and it`s the female flirting with the male by jumpimg over it..The third image is I think two males biting lumps of fur out of each other,the fourth is the chase.The last three images are of the close encounter I had with the hares,the first being that close I couldn`t focus,I`m sure that only for the noise of the camera shutter I could have touched them. WHAT A GREAT EXPERIANCE.
