Recently a customer of mine sent me a photograph of leverets suckling when they were almost the same size as the doe. Usually leverets are weaned after about four weeks.

No problem. Glad you are enjoying the blog!
Robert this painting is BEAUTIFUL. I am a rabbit lover myself after keeping so many as a child, but Hares are something else altogether. I will be popping in more to your blog to learn more about wildlife. Very informative post. Thanks for sharing!
