I was talking to a landowner the other day on his land while walking the dog, and he happend to mention an ancient piece of woodland he had fenced off last year to keep the rabbits out, the rabbits that were there were ferreted and trapped last year after it was fenced off, but you cant get them all. The landowner said that while he was ploughing he had seen one rabbit inside the fencing, so I decided to go and have a look. I took the dog to have a scan round, and right where he said he had seen the rabbit the dog gave a mark, it was more than a little overgrown, so the longnet was deployed to avoid the unwanted attention of the dreaded nettles :D

Another bolts to the same corner of the net, but this one is picked up by the dog.

The morning ended with just the two rabbits, and my polecat seems to have taken a shine to this one.
