Tiree is on record as the largest rabbit free island in Britain and this is more than made up for by the presence of hares. What a joy it was to glance out of our living room window and see a hare just a few feet away. This called for the camera, but how to do this without scaring our furry friend away.

The sun’s rays were casting a golden glow as its was almost sunset and thankfully the hare remained just long enough to record its presence. Little did he or she  know that they  had company. A rabbit of the ministerial variety was standing close by. Naturally with Bible in his hand and his faithful cat at his feet.
