Winter Wardrobe

...I continue my walk.

I head for a woven wire gate... easier than climbing over the tight barbed wire!  But there, on the other side, sits a snowshoe hare!



He's taking in the sun, and barely glances at me as I approach.

The dogs are off in the weeds somewhere... and I return down the fenceline, hoping to not scare him off and manage another pic or two.

I shove my arm though the fence and click!



Whoa.

How about some zoom on that?



A little better...



Ahhh.

There.

He twitches his nose and continues to warm up in the sun.  

I admire his winter wardrobe and decide to leave... the dogs are headed my way, and I'd hate for them to find my new friend!

    What a pretty thing! I need a camera that will zoom in like that. Mine is archaic in digital camera terms. I'm always seeing things that I want to be able to zoom in close on and catch what I'm seeing.
