Close encounter of the hare kind

I was walking along the Glasson cycle path shortly after midday today, approaching the junction with Aldcliffe Hall Lane. Suddenly a brown dog came charging towards me. Long ears, long back legs …. just as I realised it was not a dog, it realised that I was there. With us now a mere couple of metres apart the hare suddenly veered off into a field. Still running at high speed it headed off uphill in the direction of Aldcliffe/the canal and disappeared from sight. At that rate of knots, it could have reappeared in Flora in no time. Wishful thinking?
