Rabbit that drinks his own wee

I noticed Sammy doing this and in the Autumn edition of Rabbiting On 2006 Jack's-Jane wrote an article with regard to this and eating droppings. I wonder if there has been any light shed on this behaviour since that article?
 
Doughnut sometimes drinks her own. I asked my specialist about this and he said even though it looks gross it's fine. Some rabbits do it others don't and nothing to worry about.
 
bisc went through a phase of doing this and then stopped and hasn't done it since. no idea why to be honest :?
 
She's just done it tonight!

I wondered if it was because she was ill and trying to get some nutrient or something but no, it's not that at all.
