I was delighted to find the snow buntings at the Cairngorm Mountain carpark in March after a day of heavy snow, and (amazingly) no wind!
Mountain hare (lepus timidus)
This mountain hare (Lepus timidus) is cleaning its back paw by licking it. Mountain hare (lepus timidus) leveret who has just cleaned his back paw sticking his tongue out and looking cheeky! This is a hare I know as Goldie due to the fact its form is carpeted in little golden flowers. A fab hare, bags of personality.
