@AndyRoo are they tunnels or blind holes with an end? Are there rabbit droppings?
Rabbits and echidnas are present in the area, but not bandicoots

Don, they're blind holes and no sign of rabbit droppings. Could other possibilities be a fox or someone's dog, although no sign of scats from either of these.
