This gorgeous fellow was on my front lawn tonight!

[CassTheFox]

He was so lovely and didn’t seem shy as me and my kids watched him through the window!

Do any wildlife experts know.. rabbit, or young hare?

I'm not gonna lie, I'd shit myself if he was in my garden

With excitement or fear?

Defo a hare. We see hundreds where we are, they've take over from rabbits here!

That's definitely a hare - check out the ears on him! Gorgeous photo OP!

Too leggy for a bunny.

Hare, black ear tips and walking rather than hopping.

I adore hares, there's something really magical about them. There are lots up where my PIL live on the Yorkshire Wolds, and once I came across a group of nine of them sat in a perfect circle, like knights of the round table. I don't go in for woo, other than where hares are concerned.

Loving the hare love!

I’m in Essex, there are a few big fields and some farmland not far from me but we are near a big town centre as well and certainly not very rural so feeling extra lucky to have had him visit our garden.

@MsRinky love the hare knights of the round table!

My name is hare
And In the day
I wark across
Hooman drivewayes
I look for plarnts
That I can munch
There are som heyre
I hav a hunch

He’s a hare! He is so handsome, he looks so young and healthy. I’d love to see some this close up!

Ooooh, he/she is beautiful! What a lovely visitor to your garden, OP.

I think it’s a hard. We have a whole family of baby rabbits that live by the stream next to my house. We had great fun watching them grow up last summer and seeing new babies pop up on a regular basis! They don’t half eat the flowers in our front garden though.

My 6 year old now wants to write a story about him for his teacher on Monday

Aw, that’s lovely.

I’d love to have a hard in my garden. My dogs have scared off everything. 🙄

Handsome Mr Hare!

I think the story for a teacher on Monday is charming.

How lucky are you!
I am plagued by rabbits, there's 9 on my lawn at the moment. It's usually bad this time of year as there is some plant or moss or clover that's particularly tasty.
It drives the terrier bonkers, she spends hours at the kitchen window. We have to go out into the garden and shoo them off before we let her out.

a Leverett (sic) and he's gorgeous. So love that he came to the house of the fox lady!

Thanks for sharing OP, what a lovely thing to see in the garden! Must be a sign of good luck!

What a gorgeous hare.

Sadly we are getting less & less wildlife here.

Definitely a hare, he's beautiful. We love near some open fields and have a resident grey squirrel, foxes, hedgehogs (and a shit load of pigeons from next door) but I've never seen a hare. So lucky!

Beautiful photo, but do they really walk instead of hop? That actually sounds quite terrifying!

I would dearly love to see more British mammals, like a stoat, a weasel, a pine marten or an otter, sadly I don’t think I ever will but I saw what I think was a mink once (it was very dark and very shiny) that was in Ireland though it crossed the path right in front of us on a hill walk.
I can’t think what else it could have been rather than a mink. It was incredibly beautiful

A gorgeous leggy hare!

Gorgeous ❤
