Hi Everyone,
What a miserable day it's been!
I found all the cattle today just beyond the film crew in S3. They all looked well and the calf is filling out nicely!
The other news that we wanted to make you aware of is that there was a diesel spill last night. The film crew where moving some lights mounted on a generator when they hit a tree stump and broke a fuel line. This has unfortunately seeped down to the pond around Q11. A clean up crew where called very quickly and have cleared up a large amount but there are still sand bags and floats in the water to prevent it spreading any further. We have spoken to the grazer and he is happy for us to leave the cattle on the area as he believes the smell and taste of the water is likely to put them off drinking it. There is plenty of clean water in the area. We will, of course be keeping a close eye on them and the clean up operation. Natural England and the Environment Agency have been informed of the spill and will also be monitoring the situation.
many thanks for your continuing help, especially in this weather!
Lucy
