Another blank day

Wednesday 10.30, I came onto Caesars camp off bourly road at C27, and rode my bike over to the lake then onto the main track to the top, with no sign of the cattle I rode over to the whale tail and around the woods. Although it was disappointing not to find the cattle it was a nice frosty ride with the trees and bushes glistening with frost.

No sighting today

Tuesday 16.00, I made my way up the North side of Caesars camp and then West across to the whale tail with no luck. With the light fading fast I had no more time to look today.

All seen together!

Caught up with all 36 this morning (about 10am) right next to the Jubilee Clump on Caesar's Camp plateau. They seemed contented.
Also bumped into Rob, the farmer who owns the cattle, and his family. He is very happy with their condition. We will try to encourage the cattle to moved eastwards by strategic placement of the licks, so you may find the buckets dotted about in unexpected places.Look forward to seeing you all in the new year. Have a good one.

Keeping us guessing

They still seem to be in smaller groups - this afternoon a group was moving very quickly away from all the gathering of motor bikes and vans at about E28 and a little later 18 were grazing very peacefully at G23 - eight browns and 14 blacks/black-white.

Mixed bag

Saturday 14.00, I found 5 cows walking South off the main track at roughly G26, and a further 19 right against the fence at R3. They were just standing watching me and seemed a little nervous, they all seem o/k if a little thin on the rump.

Eleven cows counted

The Truffle Hound raised his nose knowingly as we rounded "Horse Pond" and there they were: a group of eleven cows, three brown and eight black or black and white. The black and white wth horns was leading the way, and they were happily grazing in the bracken. No sight of the others. A brilliantly bright if bitterly cold afternoon, according to Truffle Hound, and we agreed,

Christmas hide and seek

Spent some time on the Whale's tail but the cattle weren't to be found up there this morning. Hope someone else finds them today.
