Young Rabbits Still?

At the weekend I went out with my father for a night of rabbiting from the back of the pickup around the farm in Devon.

 

Night was nice and cloudy with a decent breeze so we set of with me in the back with my 12g about 10pm. We have just over 300 acres and the ground was nice a dry so we could cover most of it with the vehicle.

 

Bag was OK but I was amazed at how many verry young bunnies there were this late in the season, not just half grown rabbits but small kitts. Nice to add a few young rabbits to the freezer this late in the season.

 

Are others seeing young ones about still?

it is spooky...

on one of my shoots... it seemed to die off with rabbits..... there main problem..

 

anyway low and behold.. i find scratchings and droppings everywhere.... so I set up yesterday.. and shot 31 rabbits... out of that lot... more than half were young kits.

 

I was worried... I thought that I could take it easy for a while and with mature adults being illusive.. I wouldnt have to spend so much on carts at this time of year... oops I was wrong.
