At 12:10 this afternoon, the seven Sussex cattle, along with steers 35 and 219, were gathered on their favourite Sandy Hill corner. Most were relaxing and chewing their cud, while older steer 35 grazed contentedly on one of the grass mounds. After saying hello and enjoying plenty of strokes, youngster 219 wandered off to the east to graze. The others were also friendly, happily accepting strokes as I checked on them. All nine were happy, relaxed, and looking well.
By 12:30, steers 30, 217, 222, 230, 270, and 271, along with cows 72 and 214, were resting at the western end of Sandy Hill near ///curated.spice.motorist. As I approached, cow 72 stood up, stretched, and wandered over to greet me. The others soon got up too, with most continuing to rest in the sunshine, while a couple drifted off to browse leaves from the nearby trees and bushes. Youngsters 222 and 230 were especially friendly, enjoying long neck and back scratches. As I headed off to find the third group, they began to wander off in different directions to graze. All eight were happy, relaxed, and in good condition.
At 12:50, the final group of eight cattle were resting near ///spring.another.confetti, south of James Bond Pond. Cow 234 had recently got up, while the others lay comfortably in the heather and bracken, relaxing and chewing their cud. Cow 234 wandered off to have a scratch on some trees to the south before returning for more greetings. The others were content to be checked while they rested, with most accepting a few strokes. All eight were happy, relaxed, and looking well. I said my goodbyes just after 13:15, leaving them all resting peacefully.
A contractor was carrying out tree felling and burning on the slope of Sandy Hill near ///wove.newsreel.gives during my visit.
The cows were all good today.
