A question for those of you that deal with such things, are you seeing many Rabbits out yet under the lamp?

Next to nothing yet up here, though I'm starting to see one or two scrapes on daylight forays.

I am not seeing as much evidence of them as I would expect despite the farmers comments.

I've noticed on my permission lately they are increasing in numbers. I counted around a hundred the other day at dusk.
Going to be a good summers shooting, will have to get a bigger freezer lol

I was dodging bunnies aplenty last night in the Landy in one of the fields near me in Oxfordshire.

Not many bunnies out yesterday evening which brings me to a question......
Do they stay underground more when they are breeding/have young?
