We got a call yesterday about a cow on the Bourley Road, the police were out in force to help Alex C. The cow was put back in the site with the rest of the herd.
We managed to locate 2 groups of cows; one of 16 (including the cow that was outside) and one of 18. Making a grand total of 34. the group of 16 were at the bottom of the slope by the covered reservior, and the group of 18 were on Long Bottom.
We couldn't find the 2 wondering cows, at least we know they are together.
The cows looked pretty miserable, loosing their footing as they can't see the ground they are treading on. On the positive side we did observe them nosing the snow to reveal the heather, and eating pine. So at least they've worked out how to get to the food.
I got some good pictures that I'll put on the blog in good time.
