Sunday 4th October - All 25 seen

From 09:45 this morning a mixed group of eighteen cattle converged from all directions into the area south of James Bond Pond to enjoy plenty of gorse. They were all very friendly, emerging from the gorse bushes over time to come over and say hello and enjoy plenty of strokes and rubs. As I was saying my goodbyes at 11:35, eight of the cattle had settled down to rest in the heather with the others continuing to graze peacefully.

Shortly before midday, youngster 230 was grazing in the pasture north of Hungry Hill. He was very friendly and enjoyed a long neck and back scratch. Youngster 270 had been grazing by himself further north but had stared to walk back in the direction of youngster 230. he final five cattle - cows 72, 214, 234, and 940, along with youngster 222 had gathered at Horse Pond. 

Youngster 222 was walking fine today.

Will do a full update and add some photos later.
