March Hares!

March Hares!
These willow hares stand on the Steart Marshes in Somerset.

Arms wide, I am not sure if the one on the right is explaining social distancing to the other,' this far apart!'

With a lock down set to be enforced now I thought this song by the Police might be appropriate:-

I have added the song 'Don't Stand So Close to Me' by the Police

I have also added 'March Hare' by Jennifer Crook

Great shot and songs Carol. Such simple but striking artwork, they look right at home here. By coincidence I saw my first hare (live) this Spring, in a hedgerow on the way to the forest with the dogs.

Stay healthy, Doug

Ecobird club has replied to Doug Shepherd club
Thank you very much Doug. I am pleased you like them - there a number of different pieces around including a swan and a deer but these two are my favourites. I am told they are actually boxing hares I had no idea they did this - but I will stick with my version as I don't like violence! Lol! Did you get a photo of the hare? These are the only ones I am likely to get, - they move too fast for me!!

Enjoy the rest of the week and keep well Doug

I was driving at the time so was not able to get a pic. The only one I have managed to photograph is this one:

I see you.... I'm off.... Bye!!

As you say they are fast!

Both of you stay healthy, Doug

Ecobird club has replied to Doug Shepherd club
Sorry for the very late reply Doug, - I seem to have missed it. Thank you for the link, - that is a great collage. I have never been fast enough tpo get shots like this. By the time the camera is poised all I can see is a little powder puff disappearing into the distance! Have a great evening.

Well spotted and well captured, Carol. Reminds me of a Jethro Tull song; The Hare Who Lost His Spectacles. All the best, Joe

Ecobird club has replied to Joe, Son of the Rock club
Thank you very much Joe. That was new to me so had to look it up. I am afraid I got a bit distracted watching the various videos but I have plenty of time to go back to it again now we have to stay at home!

Keep well

Love these wicker hares, Steve and I saw many on an early morning walk not far from this point including boxing as those in displayed in your terrific image,
the detail and light are both superb especially when viewed large

Ecobird club has replied to Roger (Grisly) club
Thank you very much Roger, and for the information they are supposed to be 'boxing'. I had no idea!! I have heard of boxing kangaroos - but not hares, - how strange!

Thank you very much Rosa. They are great aren't they? They made me smile. Roger informed me they are boxing and not discussing social distancing, - but I prefer my version - I don't like violence!! I hope you are finding plenty to do during this lock down period. Stay safe and well.

Oh goodness, those are really cute! :)

Your choice of the first song made me laugh out loud. Perfect! :D

The second song is so pretty and is a new one for me.

Stay safe and well during this unsettling time, Carol.
4 years ago.
Ecobird club has replied to Karen's Place club
Thank you Karen. I am pleased you liked them - they are great, aren't they? Roger tells me they are supposed to be boxing hares, which apparently happens when a male pays too much unwanted attention to a female so I guess she boxes his ears!!! Lol!! Good that the song made you laugh, - we all need a giggle in these difficult times. Have a lovely evening and stay safe.
