A couple of people registered on the Pelhams website have been asking about the News from Zimbabwe.

This is a news section on the Pelhams website dedicated to Cathy Buckle's letters from Zimbabwe.  I have never met her but have been receiving her emails for some years and felt it was about time I shared her news with folks in the Pelhams.  Click here to read more about Cathy.

Just to remind registered users of the Pelhams website that you can choose what categories of news you would like to receive direct into your email.

All you need to do is login to www.thepelhams.net and you will be presented with your own personalised list of categories you are subscribed to.  So if you do not wish to receive Cathy Buckle's news from Zimbabwe or Brent Pelham Parish Council News all you need to do is untick (to unsubscribe).

Animals
Hare Hare

The Brown Hare (Lepus europaeus) is larger, longer-eared, and longer-legged than a rabbit. It has a body size of 50-70 cm and a tail length of 7-11 cm.

The weight for a full-grown adult ranges from 2.5 to 6.5 kg. It can run at speeds of up to 70 km/h (45 mph)

Normally shy animals, hares change their behaviour in Spring, when they can be seen in broad daylight chasing one another around the fields in the Pelhams; this appears to be competition between males to attain dominance (and hence more access to breeding females).
