Thirteen cows were all together in the area around //perch.belly.tools at 10:05 this morning. Cows 222, 230 and 940 were busy munching on grass. The other ten were spread out, all lying down, resting or chewing their cud. The two newbie yearlings, cows 270 and 271, were lying down amongst the group. They were together and were lying close to youngster 220. They were looking well and appeared to have been accepted by the others.
After about 15 minutes, older cows 30 and 35 appeared from a south-west direction. They emerged from over the small incline, grazing on heather as they joined the main group. Cow 30 lay down to relax, while cow 35 joined the other three, who were still grazing.
By 10:40 the cows had all got up and were grazing together in the surrounding area. Again, the two yearlings stuck close to each other as you'd expect, but were grazing as part of the herd. A couple of the other cows had a little sniff at them, but nothing more than that.
The cows were all good today.
