Thursday first thing

Couldn’t find the cattle first thing, but it was hardly surprising

All seen today, herd of 15 was found by James Bond pond and another 2 came running down the track to see what the commotion was all about after I rolled out a lick.
The other 3 jumped out at me from behind the gorse a little further away so led them to the others and  issued another lick.
The sun broke through the fog and all was well.
No problems with the herd.

Half measures

Found the kids near the horse pond with four of the grown ups, very late afternoon.  I had looked  hard for a couple of hours, so no idea where the others were hiding.  The 11 were very well and really friendly.

Late afternoon Friday

The 7 youngsters were on the top of Caesar's Camp late afternoon and looked very calm and well.  Too late in the day to hunt all the site - will go back over the weekend.

20th Dec at 08.45

Cows quite vocal this morning, could hear them before saw them.  Larger cows (10) near reservoir (think was called the horse pond back in the day) and 6 smaller cows further onto Caesar's camp.  All happily grazing.  Note to self bring kids binoculars as my eyesight isn't what it used to be!

All seen in 3 herds

Main herd just off main track from James Bond pond. And as they started to gather so did a load more. 16 in total, gave 2 licks near to pond (sandy hill side). The other 4 were in the middle of the heath close to where our controlled burns are. They had to settle for some nuts.

All go, no issues.

Chilly Saturday

Two groups up on the main Camp - the 7 littl'uns in one group and 20, 21, 23, 30, 33, 35, 118, 940 and 72 in another - not sure where the rest were hiding ...... These groups looked fine - no limps!
