I was doing yard work and removing dead plants in the front of my house, and I disturbed a bunny nest.den(?) in the ground next to one of the plants I took out. Like four of five bunnies ran out in all different directions. There's one about 10 feet away from the nest in the area where I was taking out plants...
it's been there for about 6 hours now...just sitting there, I went out and checked on it periodically but it's 10 pm now.
Another baby bunny was in the front lawn and I went inside for 5 minutes and it scurried away.
I hope they're all near the nest. I saw the mother (or I think it was the mother) in the backyard, so I tried to "move her" to the front yard, by walking near her (I wasn't trying to catch her or anything, just directing her where to run) but i failed and she ran to the neighbors yard
I read online that the mother comes to the nest only for like 5 minutes a day at night....I went out a half hour ago at around 9:30 pm. and the one baby bunny near the nest is still sitting there.
I hope the mom comes back soon, online they said the mother will call them and either fix the nest or move to another one.
Ugh. I feel bad. Someone say something optimistic

Update:
This morning I checked to see if the bunny I found was in the same spot and it was gone
I was praying the mother came back and protected it and brought somewhere safe
It's now 7pm and there's a mother bunny right by front door eating grass
My dad was cutting the grass in the backyard and he saw a baby bunny and it ran to the neighbors yard. But it's not near the mom.
I thought it was safe

Maybe it can survive on i's own now?
Oh and the den they were originally in is still messy and it looks like they abandoned it?
