The Heligoland traps are one of the first things you see if you come onto the Isle of May. These funnel type traps are used to catch migrant birds that use the island as a stopover before heading off to their breeding grounds. When there are no bird ringers are on the island we cover the traps ourselves. On this occasion we did not only catch birds.....
The rabbit was released unharmed and unringed.....
escape of the easter bunny!
