Original watercolour paintings of brown hares
Brown
hare pictures - Where I live I am very lucky because it is actually
the best place that I've ever come across for watching hares. The
fields close to the cottage regularly contain up to thirty hares,
consequently I'm often inspired to paint pictures of brown hares.
I watch the hares using a telescope. Viewing brown hares from a
distance prevents the natural behaviour of the hares from being
disrupted and this is what I most want to observe and capture.

There
are two species of hare found in Britain. In my area I am fortunate
to be able to study both the brown hare Lepus europaeus and
the mountain hare Lepus timidus. Species
of hares are native to Europe, Asia and Africa, but have now been
introduced to North and South America, Australia and New Zealand.
Hares are mostly nocturnal feeding after dusk but can be observed
during daylight. |
