Phantom 631 Posted January 21, 2010 Report Share Posted January 21, 2010 :clapper: Nice one buddy. The hare's round here dont seem to be bothered by noise either, I was out for a walk last year when I saw my 1st 'up-close' one (often seen em in the distance from cars, trains etc). It didnt seem bothered by the ambient noise (farmer in harvester, traffic on road etc). Then it amazed me by comming closer to me, litterally a few meters . I have since learnt that although they have great vision when looking out for predators, they have very limited forward facing vision. I dont think I will see any on my permission though Phantom Quote Link to post
