What on earth ...!


As the middle of the month is already past and the Winter months draw ever closer, my thoughts turn to the Spring and new life. It's a time when we see a lot of activity in the fields and sometimes you may be lucky enough to see a couple of hares boxing in the fields in March. It's all part of their courtship, and almost certainly has to be two males fighting over territory.

I guess that the loser will go home sulking and refusing to see his friends on account of having had a 'bad hare day'!

Come to think of it, almost every conflict in the world comes down to males fighting about their territory, or at least what they consider to be their territory! Yet, when all is said and done, there is actually enough for everyone if only we were better at sharing.
To achieve that, we need to be better at caring.
