Found lola she's getting some me time hiding in the gorse some way away from the others x

25/9 at 18.30

Three boys present and correct near the porta loo central heath field. I can't see lola anywhere tho. All seems well, although the other day one of the boys was walking along the path that runs around the green field, baying and mooing in distress. It seemed strange because the other three were only thro the trees x

At 1145 hrs, all found looking fit, fat, contented and well near the trough.  Trough OK too.

Monday afternoon

Took me a little while to find them but eventually i spotted them in some thick scrub not that far from the car park.

A shake of a bucket of cattle nuts got them out and they all seem very well.

Gave them few nuts was a reward for coming.

All good.

All fit and looking very well in and around L9 at 1000 hrs today.

Looked yesterday at 3.30 - no sign of cows!! Checked trough - working OK. Cows were probably laying down in the bracken. Walked most of the site but could not see them.

All fine this afternoon.

Found all four amongst the Birch scrub around the G6 area this afternoon. All looking on fine form.

Trough full and working ok.

Found at at about 1330 hrs in I8.  All contented and well.

All spotted in M12 at 15.00

Not far from Martins sighting. Had a good look at them all. Steer 071 has those funny red, fleshy growths on the corners of both eyes. Flies loving them. I have seen these before among the other herds and are of no real concern. He's also the only one with one ticks on his hocks bless'im.




Other than that, others to tickless and no other issues to report. Trough on.

13:30 All 4 lying down in the sun.

Lying as a group, with an occasional flick of the head to ward off the flies, the cattle looked fairly contented in M14, screened by bracken and gorse from the numerous dog walkers and their pets.

Today at 8.30pm

Altho a little dark could see all the cows standing very still spread out in the area just in front of the far gate from the car park. They were approachable and happy 😊
