Carn Liath Leveret

As we crossed the top of Carn Liath I spotted this cute little leveret. He didn't run off - I think he was mesmerised by the sight of people on top of his mountain. I was happy that he didn't, as it allowed me to get a shot of him in his camouflaged spot.

What a cutie! gorgeous.

[Shanne]

so cute - his defence is probably to try to hide by staying still and camouflaged.

[Nova]

He is super cute and how lucky for you too capture him. :)

[Bep]

Lovely shot.

[Sally Ings]

What a treat that he stayed there for you. Cuteness overload.

[Christopher Cox]

Amazing shot - well spotted

[April]

So cute! and sooo well camouflaged...

[Margaret Brown]

He’s a cutie, I think nature tells them not to move rather like fawns. Fav

[Casablanca]

Aww, he isn't looking impressed at being your model! Such lovely texture and so well camouflaged

[Hazel]

Beautifully camouflaged but still visible!

[KoalaGardens🐨]

wow it blends in!

[Islandgirl]

He is so cute and blends in nicely!

[Margo Sayer]

Fortunately, Mother Nature has equipped animals with an automatic defense strategy. Long may it continue.

[KWind]

He blends in so well!

[Sarah Bremner]

Wow what fabulous camouflage...
Cute little creature....hope he has a long life! The way they move is amazing when they are adult. We spotted one last weekend when out in the countryside.

Nicely spotted. I thought at first it was a newborn Scottish calf.

[Dawn]

Good spotting not easy by the looks

[Denise Wood]

Terrific camouflage! And I've learnt something new today thanks - what a leveret is :)

[PhylM-S]

So cute! He’s camouflaged nicely. I’ve never heard of this critter.

How precious! I must confess I'd not heard the term 'leveret'.
