Wild mountain hares

A portfolio about wild mountain hares during winter sesson in Cairngorms National Park, Scotland

I've been always fascinated by wild lands. In Scotland, especially in the Cairngorms National Park, I found an amazing and abundant wildlife. I spent many weeks in the last two years by concentrating my efforts by observing, monitoring and taking pictures about mountain hares, a "magic" wild animal that can survive on the tops of the Scottish mountains during extreme conditions. During the winter season, It can change its fur coat from brown to white-grey in order to better camouflage and survive against icy winds, heavy snowy storms and low temperatures as -25 °C!
