Tiny and new - a photo on Flickriver

Tiny and new

            A belly shot that I never posted of a fairly newborn wild hare (Lepus) that I thought was a mouse at first. Huddled against part of the garage door. Several inches long, I think. 

"Hares do not bear their young below ground in a burrow as do other leporids, but rather in a shallow depression or flattened nest of grass called a form. Young hares are adapted to the lack of physical protection, relative to that afforded by a burrow, by being born fully furred and with eyes open."
~Langley, Liz (19 December 2014). "What's the Difference Between Rabbits and Hares?". National Geographic. 

We have watched hares build nests of fur and grass in one of the half-barrels in which we plant bulbs. 

About as shot, except for about a 50 percent crop. Didn’t want to frighten the little thing more than it seemed, so stayed farther away. 

…Last January 2022 I asked a Flickr support hero to remove my account from the Explore algorithm. Peace.
