SNOW HARES

 

Shaking off the snowshowers

Tuesday 31st January. 

Day 2 on Deena & Knut's wildlife photography week. What an absolutely wonderful day. First look at todays weather forecast and you may have thought let's just bin it and stay in the forest. But no, our wonderful Scottish Mountain Hares are true heros and deliver many ddelights.

How wildlife photography is achieved 

Heavy snow showers and poor visibility interspersed with beautiful Scottish winter light. We perservered in the showers.

Glorious light inbetween showers

Pwhat a wonderful hare

With my expertise of guiding in winter conditions,  including micro navigation and years of research on mountain hare habitat & fieldcraft the couple from the USA were treated to some fabulous mountain hare moments. They came away ( hopefully) with some great images.

Wind, sun & snow

Difficult holding the cameras in these winds

They have 3 more days with me in the hills and our beautiful,  hardy and amazing hares.



Top day.
