At 09:30 this morning, the seven Sussex cattle were lying down, relaxing, and chewing their cud beneath the trees to the west of Horse Pond. Although it was noticeably cooler out in the open, where a refreshing breeze was blowing, the cattle seemed content in the shade, enjoying the cooler weather. They all looked happy, relaxed, and well.
By 09:55, twelve members of the original Caesar's herd were resting on the flat ground near ///freed.flaunting.duos. After a while, they made their way down the slope to the west to relax and chew their cud in the breeze. Later, they moved on to graze through the pasture, keeping north of the covered reservoir. Along the way, youngsters 222 and 228 stopped to rub their heads vigorously against a large pile of earth near ///drifters.cheese.diary, sending clouds of dust into the air. Older steers 20, 30, and 33 did the same against a larger pile to the west. Once satisfied, youngster 222 returned for more head scratches, leaving me with dusty hands! All twelve cattle were happy, relaxed, and in good condition.
Older steer 35 was grazing alone near ///attic.awaiting.latches at 10:35, happily browsing on heather and silver birch leaves. He was gradually making his way west but showed no particular hurry to rejoin the others. He looked content and in good health.
By 10:50, the final group of five steers — 217, 219, 220, 230, and 270 — were relaxing and chewing their cud inside the cow shed. One by one, they came over to say hello, with youngsters 219 and 230 especially enjoying long back rubs. All five were happy, relaxed, and looking well.
A while later, I noticed that older steer 35 had rejoined the main group as they grazed south past the covered reservoir, moving up to the higher ground by the Lookout.
The cows were all good today.
