We've had rain and sunshine today, and the temperature is still well below normal for the time of year. It was overcast early this morning when I took these two shots of rabbits out in the local fields.
The real treat though was the appearance of half a dozen young greylag goslings. From what I can ascertain they are about two days old (first seen on Tuesday). Here is a very small selection of six very small geese. The adults are in constant and close attendance.
Two more photos from the day, starting with a trio of ducks that flew over the pond as the skies darkened before a brief downpour. 
And to close, the inevitable photo of a fox cub. This one is carefully making its way along a narrow ledge at the edge of a wall above a raised flower bed.
Camera note: all shots taken with the Canon 7D and EF 100-400mm f/4.5-5.6L USM IS lens, except the fox cub which was taken with the EF 24-105 F4L IS USM lens.

16 May 2013The geese are a delight, Words … and the duck photo very handsome.
It looks like you could slice the two rabbit photos vertically, and combine the two sharp halves.

18 May 2013Adele, they've already lost that roundness of the very young. Beginning to look like proper little foxes.
