| |  Brown Hare's in Gloucestershire?
Hi all,
I want to start a photography project on the Brown hare this year.
I'm studying an area in the south Cotswolds but was wondering if anyone knew of any sites in Gloucestershire for Brown Hares.
I know people like to keep exact locations to themselves, i'm happy to search and area if someone is willing to point me in the right direction.
I would be very grateful for some information.
Cheers,
Steve |

They're pretty widespread in the area I would have though a good walk (along public footpath) through arable farmland in most places will reveal them.

First time I ever saw a hare it was just outside Great Rissington, in some open fields. Saw them boxing too. We were staying at Bourton-on-the-Water on holiday, in early May, must have been about 1990'ish. Love the Costwolds - been back several times since, and even had our Honeymoon up there! |
