Keen GoGo Hare hunters have had their noses buried into their maps this week to follow the special trail around Norfolk.
But more fans are expected to bounce in to action over the weekend to see the hand-painted sculptures in real life.
As weather conditions promise mid-to-high 20s on Saturday and Sunday, Norfolk locals and visitors are set to put on their runners and slip on their sun hat in an activity dedicated to discovering our beautiful county.
More than 50 Hares are located around Norwich and an extra 18 are hidden across Norfolk.

We teamed up with the East of England Co-op to create the 60-page book which is a tribute to all the artists, hare sponsors and supporters who have helped create the GoGoHares family.
The album can be bought for £5 at www.edp24.co.uk/hares, by calling 01603 772138, and at selected outlets across the county.
It costs £5 and we will be publishing vouchers for readers to redeem free stickers.
Earlier this week, a colourful addition to the GoGoHares trail was named as a prize for one person who cracks the county trail.
The county-wide competition challenges GoGo fans to find all 18 of the moongazer hares on the trail and work out the secret message on the trail map.
