Weasel v Bunnies

We used to have lots of rabbits around the woods going back a few years but Weasels have been spotted on several occasions and seem to be controlling the numbers. I have seen them on acrobactic bunnies back on 2 occasions - amazing.

Not many rabbits left but are the weasels doing any harm? Ground nesting birds will surely suffer but crops are better for them?

Saw a weasel here a few weeks back kill a rabbit very quick and efficient hunters, though we are still loused out with rabbits.
The bloody crows are a nuisance for taking bird eggs though not sure about the weasels.
