I was on site after Ivan today and yes, the site is shrouded in drizzly mist, quite nice in a wet and dull sort of way!
I found 18 cattle by the blue barrel, including 145, and I agree her foot is certainly bothering her and restricting her a bit. The farmer is aware but I will contact him again to find out if he has treated her or has plans to remove her. I then found 5 more in square I28, lying down looking like they were pretending it wasn't raining. Then moved on and found 27 either lying down under trees or out grazing at J26 and J25. Then up to the camp and spotted a lone cow down near the covered resevoir so drove down and found 8 in H17, then 2 in H19 all eating happily, then from one of the higher ridges I saw (or heard actually) 1 single cow running across the sandy area in H20 shouting her head off, obviously doing as I was and trying to find the others!
At that point I left site - I don't envy you lookers trying to find them all in one go on foot or bike!
