There were over 57 in quite a large area around K/L 17/18. The group included 145 who was gingerly putting her hoof on the softer ground and 1527 (I think!) who might be the calf who comes up to Norman as he came really close and seemed to enjoy having his head and neck rubbed.
There were also 5 at R5, a further 5 at R 11 and two (a cream and pale brown cow and her calf) at T11. I couldn’t read the cow’s number as her hair covered the tag and the calf was 1490. The calf’s feet were caught in a long piece of red and white tape and various bits of vegetation (which I unravelled) and the cow seemed ok and was eating birch saplings and fungi.
Overall they all seemed placid and content, though flies were bothering quite a few of the cows and calves.
