A group of twelve steers was found resting under the trees around ///carry.builds.dare at 09:30 this morning. They were mostly lying down, relaxing and chewing their cud. They'd occasionally get up, have a stretch and a scratch before lying back down. Steer 227 wandered over to say hello and received an ear rub. Youngster 222 was happy to stand close and chew his cud, with me helping to keep the flies away. The boys were all happy, relaxed and looking well.
Cows 72, 214, 234 and 940 plus steers 30 and 228 were found relaxing in the trees to the west of Horse Pond at 10:05. Cow 940 was initially lying down and chewing her cud, but soon got up to have a stretch. After a while, she walked forward to go and stand beside cow 72 at the edge of the water. She was still limping badly on her rear right leg. The others alternated between lying down and standing in the shade of the trees. They were good. There is still no change to the lump on steer 228's face.
The seven Sussexes were found at the far west of the site at 10:45, near the water treatment compound around ///projects.thuds.homecare. Steer 210 was initially grazing. The other six were standing in the shade of the trees at the side of the fenced compound. They were all relaxing and chewing their cud. When he finished eating, steer 210 came and said hello and was happy to receive a back scratch. He then wandered over and joined the others. All seven were happy and looking well.
After saying my goodbyes, I walked up to the covered reservoir and found the main gate was lying open. I checked to ensure there was no one inside and then closed and padlocked the gate. I gave Severn Trent's operations room a call to make them aware.
Except for cow 940, the cows were all good today.
