Friday 30th January

All 3 looking fine but a little damp. All eating the gorse at ///relishes.fetching.darker

10.00am 

I am unable to 'look' for the next two Fridays but should be back on 20th February. 

Weds 28th - all good

All three together and grazing near the water trough. All looking well. 

Map had them all over the place but they were together and all had their collars, so perhaps just a bit slow to update. 

Tuesday 27 Jan

 Found 3 soggy cows along the path Fleet pond side.  All sedately eating gorse, seemed fine.

Scrub Clearance this week and next

Greetings, 

We are onsite Monday and Thursday this week and again next week to continue scrub clearance 

Kind Regards 

Zoe 

All good

 Met Alice with her brush cutter and three very inquisitive cows

Friday 23rd January

No show this afternoon, not even near the fire.

Trough full to the brim.

2.15pm 

Weds 21st - all good

As Zoe predicted, all three hanging around the contractors and the fire! All look well. 

Tuesday 20th - collars back online

Tuesday 20 January

 Yes found cows along the path by Fleet pond. Followed 225s mooing. The other 2 seemed fine.

Tuesday 20th January - Staff Call Out

Sean and I attended site this morning at 9.00am as several reports of cows being out. 

When we arrived the girls were all back in but the kiss gate at ///fatigued.kennels.partners was on the floor leaving a cow sized exit point. 

We have stapled the gate shut using plain wire and put an 'out of order' sign on it. 

Will arrange proper repairs when back in office with diary. 

We will be back this afternoon to replace collar batteries 

All girls looking well and very vocal. 

Monday 19th Jan - contractors onsite + collars

Hi all, 

Contractors onsite this week cutting scrub. 

They will be here all week. Cows will likely be in this area all week as they are having a fire which cows love. 

Batteries flat in collars, trying to get date in diary to replace them but wont be this week. Back to old fashioned ways! 

Zoe 

All three seen - All good

 Workman cutting down sliver birch, made finding them easier this morning. Any unusual activity is a magnet to them. 

Batteries failed

 The batteries have gone flat so back to hide and seek !

Yes sorry! Trying to get a date in the diary to change them, wont be this week though. Back to the old fashioned ways. 

Zoe 

All good and back to normal

 All happy grazing in the grouse and heather

All good but different behaviour

 All three stood still by the water trough occasionally mooing, some chewing of cud but missing 108 may be …… moved looking out over the gate and cattle grid almost looking for a way out quite unusual behaviour 

Friday 16th January - 108 taken offsite

We've taken 108 back to farm for treatment. 

Due to time constraints we were unable to change collar batteries today, apologies. 

Will try and get a date in diary for this and let you know soon but it may be a while 😵‍💫

The other 3 all fine 

Have a good weekend and thanks again 

Zoe 

Note about 108

Hi all, we are coming out on Friday to round up the girls and decide on course of action for 108 (treat onsite or remove and take back to farm) 

We will take this opportunity to reinstate collars and change batteries too. 

Thank you for your lookering support. 

Cheers 

Zoe 

Weds 14th - 108 on her own

Couldn't find 108 anywhere so rung the office, but did then spot her lying half under a tree on a final lap at ///flanked.shippers.surprised. She's very well hidden! 

No obvious sign of injury but she didn't make any effort to move when I approached and is holding out her rear right leg straight and curled up on the others.

Other three all fine, eating together just around the middle path. 

Alice has said they're planning on coming out to see her on Friday, just in case anyone has troubles finding her tomorrow too. 

Tuesday 13 January

 Found cows out in the open, 108 was on her own, definitely struggling. The other 3 all seemed fine and were curious.

108 very lame

 Will call it in

All good

 If a little damp this morning! Happy chewing the cud

All good

 2 were Deep in the grouse so not checked properly but all good

Friday 9th January

All 4 chewing the cud at ///dearest.casually.juggles at 11.50am. All look fine. 

Dyers Weed, (114), had some foaming at the mouth whilst chewing, but that may be normal?

Everything defrosted now so plenty of water to drink.

Only 1 cow showing up on the grazing map.

Weds 7th - only 3 seen

Went at lunchtime today. Trough not frozen over but full of ice so I fished out all the big bits. 

Girls grazing in the middle of the site in the hedgerows. Three white ones together and look well. but couldn't see Delia through the bushes. 

Warning for tomorrow - the wet grass has frozen solid and is really slippery in some patches, so watch out! 

Tuesday 6 Jan

 Found all 4 separately grazing in the gorse and 

snow. All look fine. Looks lovely. Checked trough which was frozen and took out some ice, then 2 came down for a drink and a Robin too.

All good

 Molly and I were out anyway, all looking good in the weak sunshine 

Monday 5th Jan - Trough + Staff Check

Alice and I were onsite this morning to check trough and girls. 

Thank you for breaking the ice on it, 

We had a go with the sledgehammer and sifted out the ice 

All four girls looking very well this morning 

Ice done all good

 All happy in the sunshine 

Ice done, batteries not working

 All cattle looking good, ice smashed. Only two showing on the map. 3 had collars. 

Note for Saturday Lookers

  Hi all, hope you've had a pleasant Christmas and New Year. Just a quick note to ask if the Saturday lookers would be able to smash and remove any ice in the trough, as its meant to be a cold night. We will be up on the Sunday to defrost the pipes

Thanks as always

Friday 2nd January 2026

All found eating gorse and looking good. ///smoke.processes.breaches @ 11.00am. 

Cleared the trough of some ice.
