Afternoon walk

None spotted.

All 15 on Sandy Hill

Thursday am

5 grazing in the middle of Long Bottom.

7 on Sandy Hill 27 May 13:45

Mostly getting some shade. All seemed fine.

No sign of them today, apart from fresh dung! probably tucked away from the heat

09.30 25th May. We found 10 around about w3w tags.hook.pilots, eating and ambling in the sunshine. Although I think 147 had had a bit too much sun and before we left had lain

down in the shade.
Found 147, 155, 159, 165, 168, 176, 177, 020, 035, and 023.
Stay well, Des & Marina

Wednesday am at 10.00

Meant to post earlier.  Spotted 13 at the Shell Garage entrance happily grazing.

Wednesday am

I think the herd were in the trees at the Aldershot end, a couple came out to see us on our way out and I counted nine scattered around the open area, behind the Pavillion, on our way back.

All found via a couple local walker tip offs. Nissan hut /Bourley rd way.

All seeking the shade, they're not daft! And I'm glad to report all Tick free so i must have got them all in the end. Very busy today, hardly surprising. Saw Russ MOD Russ Duggun on route.

At least 2 Dartford Warbler singing in the gorse  line on main track nearer corral, and a cuckoo in the distance.

Blogged Gelvert but fyi all sunbathing with a host of the public by the fishing club car park, large reservoir. 

Monday am

Eight sunbathing behind the Pavillion. As we were leaving, they were joined, noisily, by a ninth one. All seemed OK.

9.30 Mon 18th May. Walked from Sandy Hill around the ponds up to Caesers Camp, back round to the dip between the ponds and Sandy Hill. Saw no sign of them.
Stay Well, Marina & Des

17 May 09:10 - all 15 grazing on Sandy Hill

Healthy Herd Return from Camp45

The herd have all passed their TB test and have now been returned to Caesars Camp. Finding them just got a little harder again!

Thanks,

Jack

Thursday 14th May.

Checked in on the herd today and they're doing fine in Camp 45. They'll have a long walk up hill tomorrow once the TB test is completed!

The cattle have been rounded up this morning for their TB check. They are now all in Camp 45, Bourley Rd. All going well they'll be out again this Friday.

Monday 11th May at 10.40

15 cows lying down sheltering from the blustery wind not far from Sandy Hill entrance - sublime spelled occur (3 words location).  All seemed happy, very windy out there!

Des and I have some family stuff to sort out tomorrow and will not be walking anywhere. Stay Well, Marina

9 May mid morning - all 15 on Sandy Hill

Ooops - forgot to post this yesterday.  All 15 animals grazing and chewing the cud on Sandy Hill mid morning yesterday (Sat 9 May).  All seemed well.

9.50am 8th May, Happy VE Day. Found 12 cows around w3w falls.inch.leans. All seemed happy enough eating and walking slowly towards Hungry Hill. 168, 176 and 177 are the 3 not seen.
Stay Well, Marina & Des

7 May 2020 13:45 - all 15 on Sandy Hill

All lying down, some chewing the cud but many dozing with eyes shut and head tucked in by their body.  Very contented scene.

Similar to Jane's sightings all in the Wood closest to Beacon Hill bar 1.

But the 1 is fine, looked to be finishing off one of my licks I left a couple days ago.
The main herd were all found at w3w: barrel.disband.impaired.

Wednesday 6th May

7 youngsters seen happily grazing at 09.50 on bank of reservoir by Sandy hill entrance - Names.Bobbles.Swordfish.  Saw what I assumed was the lone ranger moving with purpose on the plain of Caesar's Camp - Hoovered.Overheat.revival at 10.07 and then again at 10.13 moving past the sandy hill reservoir Sweetly.drooling.Chains.

All found around the corral at Beacon Hill rd entrance

Moved quite the distance from Marina's spot this morning! I then dosed them all to hopefully sort the tick problem, but, got distracted by the amount of people trying to get by them so I'm not 100% I did 168. Can't double dose so have had to hope i did. One to check in a few days.

They then moved up and later up in the Heather at dreamer.eating.couriers. Which which is where I gave them their licks. They weren't overly bothered with them tbh.

10.20am Mon 4th May. Found all 15 around what3word reference.prettiest.shippers. See photos.
Stay Well, Marina

Sunday 3rd May

Found in three groups all in Sandy Lane area

Sat 2nd May. Why is 030's left horn shorter and darker than the other? Marina

9.25am Fri 1st May. Found 7 cows between Sandy Hill Road and James Bond pond, 155, 168, 177, 020, 021, 023 and 030 some in the brambles, some on the scrub land. By 10.35am most of them where still there laying down chewing the cud. 155 and 168 where no longer there. No sign of the others around Caesers Camp or the ponds.
Re Mon 27th: we have removed the inner tube tying the fence down but it could do with looking at. Barbed wire is missing.
Stay Well, avoid the joggers, Marina
