User's notes

In the evening there are up to half dozen rabbits close to the nature reserve entry Tay Ian Nicol street/ the Fair. Rabbits also visit nearby gardens and residents complain they eat their ornamentals. There are rabbit signs in the reserve such as overgrazing damage, lots of pellets, buck heaps (first photo), scratch marks and digging, and new warrens (second photo). In the vicinity large warrens that were closed by PCS in the past months have reopened and new entries added, see https://canberra.naturemapr.org/sightings/4585478
