Location: Think.Spray. Locker (M14)
Cow: 088
Summary: very happy chewing away on some grass .no signs of stress. Approached me for a sniff
Eyes/Ears/Back: all looks fine. hoofs, udders, and general condition all good.
Cow: 075
Summary: Hiding deeper in the woods. clearly didn't want to be disturbed.
Eyes/Ears/Back: ears and nose look fine. eyes looked a bit dark and mysterious. Doing a great impression of the Blair Witch Project for Halloween (see image)
Saw both at 3.00 pm. Grazing in L6. Caledonia looking clean and healthy chewing away on the gorse. Teasle also looking OK and grazing on gorse but sneaking the odd go at the acorns.
Trough full and working
Found 075 grazing on the gorse along the path at I14. No sign of 088. They do not seem to stay together now. Lots of acorns and sweet chestnuts, but they seem to be ignored.
Trough OK
Checked just after 12 noon and nowhere to be found. Lots of dogs using the trough but generally seems to be ok (bottom of it is a bit sludge laden)
Late blog! Walked the site yesterday at 2.30 pm. No show of cattle. Bracken is now dying off so hopefully they will be easier to spot in future.
Checked trough - working OK
Wandered the heath at around 9:30am and couldn't spot the pair.
couple of leaves in the trough but all ok.
Envisage.Chair.Vacancies ( L9)
Both sitting near the main path (see below) which meant that several dogs took interest in them (4 separate occurrences whilst I was checking) but they remained fairly unperturbed.
Cow: 088
Summary: super chilled, sat on the ground cudding.
Eyes/Ears/Back: all looks fine. hoofs ok.
Cow: 075
Summary: Happy and no signs of stress.
Eyes/Ears/Back: all looks fine. hoofs look ok too.
both have been rubbing their necks on the foliage (see below), so have some grass stains on them.
