Big Brown Hare

Spotted this giant brown hare by the side of the road on the journey to Fort Augustus today and it was bigger than our black cat. It eventually found a gap in the wire fence and lopped off home. Met our guests in Fort Augustus walking by the lock gates and they told us that they have seen a big hare running down the track from the cottage gate. They have also seen several deer roaming by the garden furniture and also an owl one morning by the bird table - no doubt watching for the mice that gather up the remnants of food underneath. Drove by Loch Tarff and had to stop several times as the sheep and lambs were wandering casually around and drinking at the loch.
