I had a found a rabbit nest 2 weeks ago in my yard. I had to cut the grass last night and wanted to be sure that they didn't get hurt. I checked the nest and they were not in there. I cut the grass and when i was just about done one of the rabbits ran out of the hedges and into my garage. I finished cutting the grass and put the mower back in the garage, hoping the rabbit found his way out.

I saw him in the corner and figured i better get him out. I caught him and took him back to the nest. I put him in the nest and covered it back up. I figured that if I didn't put him back in something would surly nail him on his way searching for the nest, be it a hawk or cat.

So I put him in the nest and covered it up. He was still acting frantic so I starting making a ticking sound. Not sure why but I figured it would calm him down.

Here is what happened next.





All of the other bunnies, except one whom I could not find came out of the hedges and came up to me. They would follow me around. I called my wife and told her to come outside and see something, and to bring Corbin.

So i moved about 10 yards away holding Corbin and started doing the ticking sound. Low and behold they came over again. Corbin even took to trying to call them in as you can see in the video.



Now this was pretty cool, but don't plan on messing with them anymore and let nature be nature. I wanted to help out the one that got stuck in the garage, and in turn got to have the other ones pay me a visit. I enjoyed letting Corbin get a close look at nature, but am going to take a stand off approach now.

Just figured some of you guys would enjoy this.
