Walked for about an hour and a half this late morning. Beautiful day. Found 2 cows immediately beside the path at Sandy hill. One was the pretty cream coloured cow (No57). Whilst she looked perfectly happy, we thought she looked a little thin today.
We found a further 4 cows on the slope and another 7 in the brush a little to the west. On returning we found another 2 cows further west along the track beside Sandy hill. One of them, (No56) was bellowing loudly. So 15 cows in all.
There were lots and lots of people around, walkers, cyclists, runners, enjoying the weather but no motor cyclists today.

Hi Hilary
ReplyDeleteI too saw the cream cow and mentioned that she seemed rather thin.
Marian
I will ask that she be specifically looked at and supplementary food given if required.
ReplyDeleteWhilst we are on the brink of the spring grass growing the animals will be looking their absolute worst in terms of weight an condition. This is perfectly normal for this time of year but can still be concerning nonetheless.
