Rabbit population on the increase?

Is it just me or are the rabbits breeding very well this year?
I shot bout 10 in 2 weeks on ground they were eating shrubs on
during the summer, and now there is just as many back again. And
in other places where there was only the very rare rabbit over
the past couple of years they have sprung up and theres the best
of 10 or so running around. And i hear of other places that had
a lot of rabbits are now hiving with them.
Anyone else experience a lot of them about this summer?
