  3. Phone the on-call member of staff who will then respond accordingly.

NOTES:

  • Please do not phone a member of staff directly unless you know they are on-call.

    29/30 th June

    29th   all cows under shady tree @ L11
    30th   couldn't see the cows today I am sure they were in a shady area as it was very warm went I went out.

    28th june @ 7pm

    All the cows looking very well I am impressed as last year they looked ok but this year better must be the improved grazing.  Gerico was licking bambi a fair bit on her hind quarters no wounds just a heard thing I guess.

    They were at J11 @ 7 and on the way back from our walk at 9pm they were at the water trough.

    Site Check

    Just doing a site check of Bramshot Heath and found all 5 cows around K6 and all looking very well.

    Trough is fine but the lick has been finished off. I will drop a new one off later today or tomorrow morning.

    sorry for my blogglessness last week my computer crashed.all five grazing away in k10,nice to see them altogether, although jericho was being quite argy bargy with bambi and she even tried to mate her twice,really quite bizzare to see. only other concern was bambi seemed to be having trouble breathing,she was making her sides really judder. x

    Not easy to spot them now everything is shooting & the tall grasses but at around 10:50 we first saw Bambi in K6 head down grazing, her coat is looking lovely now. Morag & Jericho were grazing in I5 with Crumple standing in J4, looking fine. Then...do you think I could find Daisy! Well we know she can wonder at times but I must say, after 15 mins looking, I was getting concerned. Then my dog Rosie went running off into the woods, came back and looked at me as if to say I've found her. So off I go and thank goodness, there she was sitting down deep in the woods in L3. I got up close to make sure she was ok but although she didn't move and was not bothered by Rosie, I did get a good look at her and she did appear ok. so glad I found her though!

    Tuesday 18 June 8am

    All except Jericho hiding in corner N14, very difficult to see sitting down, looking fine.  When I came out of the wood Jericho was standing by the path in M13 not sure where she was when I walked by.  They always hide when I have little time, do they have ESP or is it just sods law?

    found daisy morag and crumple just along from the main carpark gate in e5,we looked around for the other two,then on my way back in the same place there was only jericho marching around mooing loudly,she'd definately lost the others. I couldnt find bambi at all i hope shes ok and that wasnt what was freaking jericho out,ive never seen any of them like that . i hope she found them x

    Sunday, 16 June 2013

    All in L3 & 4 at around 10am this morning, standing with heads down munching away, all looked fine. Checked trough, all ok over there too.

    Saturday, 15 June 2013

    Up very early this morning.  Nearly gave up on them, walked all over and couldn't see them anywhere. Headed back to the car and drove back down the track from the car park and thought I'd take one last look and there they all were in C4 around the big tree, it was around 9am by this time.  I should know better, they do like it there.  I was in the car so didn't get a great look at them but they seemed fine.

    All the girls munching away on g5 and h5. Myself my son and my do all approached them,im guessing they must be getting used to us as they let us stand real close and daisy and bambi were real happy for us to give them a good scatch. Last yr we went on a reptile walk with elliott and he pointed out a few sundews had grown well now the is a large patch of them,there lovely.All the cows have put on weight and look really health and happy. x

    Daisy and Bambi having a rest the others happily grazing all look OK in D15 out of lick.

    Tuesday 11 June 9am

    After an extensive search, and as I was about to give up, I found them hiding under the rhododendron not far from the gate at D4.  Looked quite miserable and still and very close together, but fine.  I had been told they were up near the trough but the person must have been mistaken.  I don't think I would have missed them if they had been on the move.

    They are always difficult to find when you have least time!!!!

    At 12:15 today, Jericho slowing moving around with her head down eating away in I5. Further round the path we saw the others all in I6 sitting down (except for Bambi who was standing) by the tall trees, all chewing the cud.  They let me get up close and so took the opportunity to take a good look at them. They were very calm and happy in the sunshine with a little breeze.

    Saturday, 1 June 2013

    At 8:40 this morning, we found the girls out in the sunshine, Bambi in L10, Daisy in K11, both standing with heads down, the others all together sitting by the big tree in L11 chewing the cud. All looked fine. Both lick & trough all ok too.
