Description Hey Everyone!!
Here is the new card I've made for this project about Swiss Flora and Fauna: A little extra project about Swiss Nature

This is the Mountain Hare, whose Latin name is "Lepus Timidus", which means "shy bunny" isn't that cute? They are indeed very difficult to see, partly because they go out mostly at night, in regions around 2000 meters above the sea level, and partly because its fur changes colors for each season: from pure white in Winter, it becomes grey-brown in Summer, with many varied in-between states in Spring and Autumn (the photo I took as a ref because I thought it was totally adorable was taken in Spring). The Mountain Hare is shorter and stockier than other hares, with larger feet covered above and under the toes by thick fur that acts as snowshoes... impressive, isn't it?

Personal note: OMG, bunnies and hares are sooooooooooooooooooooooo awesome to draw!! I already knew I loved drawing birds and cats, but bunnies, I've discovered that I really love drawing them with this card  

About the drawing: I kept the information in beige like all the other pictures on this page (the pages are color-coded: pink for big animals, blue for tiny ones, beige for fast ones, and other colors for strange categories like "surprising", "colorful",...
