This is my return to Scotland to photograph the *mountain hares*, I am up here for three days searching for the native mountain hair of Scotland, I will be going up mountains walking through valleys, and making my way across the moorland in search of the mountain hares in the snow.
The mountain hare lives in the Scottish Highlands and are renowned for turning white in winter to match its surroundings high up in the hills and mountains
The idea behind this trip is to familiarise myself with more areas and the behavior of mountain hares during the winter.
I have to say that my Seeland Clothing is absolutely bulletproof against these conditions I am so impressed with the clothing, and I highly recommend their gear.

WOW! Not only did you get the shot, but you knocked it right out of the boundary Ash. Fantastic capture and a hard earned one! Your greatest asset is the respect you have for your subjects & their environment they are in, and it is showing in your results. It has been an absolute pleasure to follow you on your journey into wildlife photography through this channel my friend. Thank you for taking us all along with you! 💯👏👏👍

The 'snow burrow' image topped off a most fantastic film. Beautifully filmed from start to finish. It captured the adventure, wild as it was in the beginning, and took us on an experience to want to relive over and over. BTW that 'generative fill' example was truly amazing, especially as the portrait was on a slope and the landscape was flat. Beautifully done, Ashley.

Brilliant wee video. The shots of the hare preening are amazing and your attitude to not disturbing the hare is exemplary. Thanks for sharing.

@trevorburton4429 5 месяцев назад

Really enjoyed the video and your images, especially the video of the hare cleaning. Before going ahead with the car key safe, I’d strongly recommend you check if it makes it vulnerable to theft. I only need to have the keys in my pocket and I can open doors and start the engine. Looking forward to Dans video experience there too.

@WildlifePhotographerUK 5 месяцев назад

Hi Trevor many thanks for the comments, glad you enjoyed the video, yeh good point about the car key being close to the car, but I suppose if it is a Faraday Pouch it should be ok, I think. 👍😜

@jonsinky911 4 месяца назад

Great video and that last image is one to cherish. I was up on the 12th of March for my first ever attempt to get the mountain hares, unfortunately not a great deal of snow but plenty of obliging hares and to my surprise a SEO hankered down amongst the heather. Beautiful valley to walk, and i will return next year.

@WildlifePhotographerUK 4 месяца назад

Hi John many thanks for your comment, yes there's not been a lot of snow up there really this year very sparse, yes there are a couple of hares in that Valley that are quite tame, and allow you to get quite close. I did hear that the was an SEO cited in the valley but I did not see it when I was there. Hope you managed to get some great photos , all the best. 👍

You are brave to leave your camera bag. Sadly, here in the U.S., it probably wouldn’t be there when you got back. Beautiful video and excellent images. Thanks for sharing!!

Hi Trish yeah i did think about that, but then there are not a lot of people around, and I am sure i could catch up with a thief carrying my heavy bag lol. 😜👍

Another great video that snow and wind, I felt bloody cold just watching this. Can I ask do you have some ex special forces hardarse background cause we often see you out and about in these videos, and I can't help wandering 😅

@WildlifePhotographerUK 5 месяцев назад

Hah lol cheers for the comment @peterosborne9802, not really, tried to get in but they would not have me lol 😂 , so i went climbing instead, I have been rock climbing and ice climbing around the world and climbed a few big mountains the biggest being Aconcagua in Argentina 6,961m, etc, I think it is just nice to get out into the wild to photograph and find the wildlife, along with having mini adventures along the way. 👍😂

@clivemear4481 5 месяцев назад

Your videos are getting better and better... keep going, and well done. Great you caught Dan... though meeting other photographers on location is a double edged sword for wildlife photographers... disturbs the wildlife sometimes... hope it didn't for you! lol

@WildlifePhotographerUK 5 месяцев назад

Cheers Clive thanks for the comment, no if there are other photographers around I generally just move off, and go elsewhere, prefer being alone photographing most of the time, but on this occasion it was fine, I was just looking for additional images nothing special on this occasion. 😀👍
