Will my Lillie’s return after rabbit hiatus?

Years ago I planted a number of lilies in this area. The rabbits kept eating the lilies before they ever developed and I eventually gave up on them. This year I don’t have the rabbit problem and I noticed my lilies trying to grow. I only had two blooms but am encouraged. If I allow the plants to die back on their own, do you think I will have blooms next year? (Provided I can continue to keep the bunnies away) I’d also like to move some of the bulbs to a sunnier location. When would a good time to dig them be?

Keeping the hungry rabbits away will help tremendously. Also moving them to a sunny location will do a lot better than a shady area. Fall would probably be a good time to move them. If you can't locate them, wait until spring when they start coming up and move them before they put on a lot of growth. Usually the bulb companies have them available in fall and spring.
