I was surprised to learn the correct shade of Beveren blue in the UK is slightly different – it seems more bright a shade, similar to the medium blue in the previous post, but more blue than gray… I’d love to get my hands on one! Check out more pix: http://beveren.moonfruit.com/

Belgian Hare – Jack the Rabbit
The guy who started it all… my first (and still, only) Belgian Hare. He’s a wonderful creature, smart, agile, funny. I love this little guy.
