At 09:30 this morning, Sussex cows 211, 212, and 1396, along with steers 197 and 210, were happily grazing on heather in the pasture near ///zinc.croutons.hound, west of James Bond Pond. Despite the strong winds, the cows were nice and dry and looking really well. They all approached to say hello.
However, steer 1640 seemed to have stayed behind. Just after 10:00, I found him munching in the gorse bushes near the top of Sandy Hill at ///petulant.fled.bucks. He appeared happy to see a familiar face and continued grazing calmly. He was absolutely fine and showed no urgency to rejoin his herd mates.
By 10:15, cows 72, 214, and 940, along with steers 33 and 227, were grazing near ///goose.emails.unfit. Cow 214 and steer 227 were particularly friendly, both coming over for back rubs. The group slowly grazed west along Longbottom before moving onto the slope of Sandy Hill. About fifteen minutes later, older steer 35 came wandering along and joined them, having been munching on leaves in the thicket. All six were happy, relaxed and in good health.
Steers 21, 220, and 230 were grazing among the bushes near ///free.nurses.start at 10:55, just past the Sandy Bowl. Youngster 230 came and said hello and enjoyed a long back scratch. Nearby, steers 20, 30, 217, 219, 222, 270, 271, and 1626, along with cow 234, were grazing in the thicket the on the opposite side of the path. One by one, they slowly emerged from the bushes, allowing me to check them over. All were in excellent condition. I said goodbye to the group shortly before noon.
The cows were all good today.
