All the land in Ireland before the independence was owned by landlords who in most cases lived on the other side of the Irish Sea. To cash in on the land they had agents to rent it out to the inhabitants of the place. A very strange set up come to think of it. The farmers who had been born and bred on the land were subservient to absentees. Even the bunnies on the beach were not to be enjoyed. To lament this situation lots of beautiful songs were composed about 'poachers' being flogged, hung or deported to Australia.
It's great to sit and watch the bunnies go about their business as the sun goes down. They are very active then.
