Steers 217, 219 and 222, along with cow 234, were grazing near ///clots.spits.remind at 16:45 this afternoon. Cow 234 paused for a big drink from a large puddle. They all seemed happy, relaxed and were looking well.
At 17:05, steers 220, 230 and 1626 were happily grazing around ///rosette.lofts.feuds, while cow 212 stood in the sunshine, chewing her cud. After enjoying a head rub, steer 1640 lay down in the heather, relaxing and chewing his cud. They were all happy and relaxed.
Just before 17:25, distant rumbles of thunder were heard, and within minutes, a large storm hit the site, bringing strong winds, hail and plenty of thunder and lightning. The five cows and I quickly dashed for cover under the trees near ///save.clocks.doses.
By 17:55, cows 72, 214 and 940, along with steers 30, 227, 228, and 271, were found sheltering together in some bushes near ///senses.ogre.churn as the storm eased. Steers 21 and 270 were further west, in the thicket. By the time I reached the first group, they had started grazing in the surrounding area. Despite being soaked, they were all doing well.
I returned to second group at 18:25, who were now grazing near ///settle.rules.models. Unfortunately, no other cows had joined them, so I set off to search for the remaining six.
After a long search, I found steers 33, 35, 197 and 210, along with cows 211 and 1396, spread out grazing near ///deny.worth.spill at 19:20. They all came over to say hello, and despite being really wet, cow 211 greeted me with a few head rubs. They were all good.
Before leaving, I checked on the first group of cows again. All four were happily grazing near ///went.sock.lodge, drying off nicely and looking fine at 19:35.
It felt strange not seeing Bertie (steer 20) this evening. I really hope he responds well to treatment and makes a speedy recovery.
The cows were all good today, despite the weather's best efforts to spoil it.
