We meet again.

The Lepus timidus ainu have reappeared.
Perhaps because mating season is approaching, here and there I came across hares chasing each other around today.
Their coats have changed even more in the few days since I mentioned them in a recent post.
And boy, when they run away, they fly!
Fleeing in their characteristic hopping style, they can reach speeds of up to 80 kilometers per hour.
