Poor baby rabbits. I have found that rabbits,especially baby ones, die overnight of shock if they are handled (or brought home by the cats) and there is not much you can do except give them a warm dark place to die in peace. Only one ever survived and was releasd out in the fields the next day. I suppose looking at it logically, if there was not almost 100% mortality rate amongst baby rabbits then there would be rabbit plagues as in Australia.
PS I hope your cold does not take hold and is over quickly. Hot water, honey and lemon (&whiskey?) is very soothing for sore throats.
PPS Your yellow cow parsley looks very like the fennel growing in my garden. My wildlife quide says that it does grow wild in the UK.
