The cows were all found in the woods in the area around ///rock.served.forks at 17:20 this afternoon. Cows 21, 30, 35, 214, 215, 227 and 940 were all lying down, relaxing and chewing their cud. The others were standing in among the trees. They were taking shade from the sun, but were all fairly lethargic and not their usual happy selves. There were a lot of flies about, and they were constantly trying to get them off their faces by shaking their heads or rubbing their heads against the trees. Several of the cows had more sticky burs caught on their bodies, tails and heads again today. Cow 234 was particularly bad again.
After about thirty minutes, the cows started to get up and wander off in the direction of the cow shed, munching on leaves and grass as they went. They actually wandered past the shed and crossed the bridge into the trees, where several stopped to take a drink from the various streams. By 18:20 they had all made it to the area around ///neckline.carver.spend where they munched on some fresh grass. Several of the cows took a big drink from one of the streams in that area. After a short while, they carried on along the path before cutting into the thicket, where they continued to graze.
The cows were all okay today, but they were being bothered by a lot of flies in the warm and humid conditions.
