During this January we had some amazing weather condition. Hoar frost on many days.

Brown hare in Hoar frost
Hoar frost is not something I have the chance to photograph often. Well last Sunday I took loads of pictures of hares, Chinese water deer in hoar frost. It was spectacular. Of course I was at my “Hare Paradise” and I had a cracking time with my little friends….

When the sun rises, it is always a battle to find a subject to place in the frame. You need to be very quick as “that” moment does not last very long…maybe 5 minutes at best, after the sun is too high and it`s too late,. This time I was lucky! you need a bit of luck from time to time.. 🙂
The light was gorgeous
I was able to come very close to this one. Taken about 3 metres away with 70-200mm. The sheep in the background were a bonus! 🙂
After a while I came across this chap. A very tame Chinese water deer.
At first he looked at me and then started to graze
He came quite close to me….Beautiful…
I was leaving when I came across this magpie perched on a post.
Hare Paradise
Last Thursday , we had a massive hoar frost in Buckinghamshire.
It was A CRACKING morning…It was cold and beautiful. Next best thing would have been snow…
Every time I go to “my” hare paradise , I never know what I am going to come across . It is always a surprise…
Here are a few shots of that incredible morning…

I could not find any hare to place in the picture…so I took the picture of a sheep.. 🙂 🙂
Then, I came across Hares…

I also came across a Chinese water deer. …
It was a very successful morning to say the least.
