Boxing hares

 I was on my bike for a joyride.

On my way I saw 2 hares in a meadow, chasing each other. Mostly you don't see them at midday, so that was a surprise seeing even 2!

Shortly after they started kickboxing. It looked amazing...how they were kind of fighting together. Later I noticed that one was chasing the other one away. Maybe the other tried overruling his territory. When the other was far away enough, the first one ran back.

It looked like a dance...though it was probably not, but I really enjoyed it. later I made a small doodle of the dancing, kickboxing hares.

Hare

 I totally fell in love with the hare, who is still coming everyday. Mostly in the evenings now, however he might be here around in other parts of my garden where I can't see him.

I love his cute little tail, which is black on top and white underneath...Who would think of that, when our Creator was imagining a design for a hare.

and then his soft little cute nose...sooo tender and soft.

Hare

I see him almost everyday, feasting on the clovers and grass and some poppy's.

Very interesting however is that he comes to my terrace in the evening. He instals himself near a big plant pot at the end of the my terrace. He then grooms and washes his legs and face on such a adoring manner that my heart melts by seeing him doing so. 

He then lays down and takes a nap...!

I've never heard of that a wild hare takes a nap on a terrace. Mostly they have their sleeping place in a burrow, not near a house.

Does anyone know more about that? If so, please let me know.

Rabbit is a hare

 Rabbit is not a rabbit. he is a hare...

Someone wondered and told me it's not a rabbit. It's a hare....a young one.

Because he is a young hare, he looks a lot like a rabbit. however his ears are longer and his hind legs are  stronger. Now I know, there is no mistake.

He likes flowers a lot. He loves eating some of the campanulas. There are lots of flowers in my garden, so there is enough.

Rabbit 2

Today he was back! my little rabbit. He again feasted on the flowers in the grass and I could see he really liked them. He even took a papaver bud. Just in front of me...It seemed to me he didn't notice me. He then began washing his nose and ears! and even took a nap for a while.

Never saw a wild rabbit that close and so enjoying himself.
 

Rabbit

 This morning I had a very special guest visiting my garden.

I think he really liked it and me too.

However most people don't want them in the garden, and that's what I understand as well. He was looking for nice yummy things, like clover and other flowers and then he discovered the poppy's and ate a delightful meal of poppy leaves and flower.

When he noticed me, he suddenly ran away...too shy to have me as an observer, when he has his yummy meal.
