Babies

Today I thought I saw a pair of rabbits out with the hares. This was because all I could see were bobbing white tails as they chased about, but looking through the magnification of the camera lens I realised to my huge excitement that they were baby hares: leverets. They must be too little to tuck their tails down when they run as the adults do. It's probably hard to see from my photos below but the first is a baby with his tail up and beneath this is the adult with his tail tucked down!
