Leave them be, they are wild bunnies and do belong here.

Let nature takes it course.

Years ago I volunteered at the PAWS wildlife hospital (then HOWL). I seem to remember learning that mother rabbits nurse their babies only a few times a day and that they babies are left alone for long periods of time–so long that people often think they have been abandoned. I also remember that rabbits frighten very easily so it is best just to leave them be as Hammerhead advised. You might want to double check my memory though by giving the PAWS wildlife hospital a call.

The greatest danger is posed by cats. If you keep them safe from cats and they should be okay.

Rabbits are a sign of good luck. Congrats on the (surely adorable) interloping yard guests!

They should be fine. It’s duck season.

when we found them while gardening 3 days ago they were about 3 inches, we don’t mess with the nest. Today I noticed more rabbit fur on the nest area, so I assume the Mama Wabbit is nursing them. So curious, but don’t wont to disrupt them.
