Rabbit, Rabbit, Rabbit…

I recently bought a cheap wildlife camera (£70 from Aldi) to try out. A couple of days after I got it my wife discovered a hole in the ground by one of our chicken huts which we suspected might be rats (judging by the size). So, one evening I set up this camera to keep watch overnight:

one rabbit

We had a rabbit!

No, two!

2 rabbits

No, five!

5 rabbits

No,  seven!

7 rabbits at night

Overall, for such a cheap camera, I was pleased with the results. As the light gets low a fair amount of noise becomes prominent, but this is a cheap device. The night vision is reasonable although the light is concentrated at the centre.

I am going to have some fun using this camera!
