Cow on the road.

I've just had a message from a friend who has just seen a cow on the A325 opposite the Enterprise garage. I have given her various numbers to phone but she suspects that the police have already been called.
I would be pleased to hear how this is resolved.

Report from Ivan today

Came across 5 cattle early this afternoon near Water Tower and making way towards the large gravel pit grazing on broom and looking healthy.

20 spotted this morning

Spotted 20 in three locations this morning.
Grid I 16 (Covered Reservoir) 014, 067 and 056
Grid T 9/10 (Where 2 licks were out on Thursday) 11 cows including 090, 092, 940, 057, 144
Grid ??  (Small lake with dead trees in it) 106, 098, 044, 08?, 056 and 5000081

All in good nick!

All spotted in 2 and a bit herds on the eastern side of the site between shell garage and Beacon Hill rd.

Was on a looker sesh with lookers Henk (Pondtail) and Tom (CC and GCA). The herds behaved very well. Couple thin but not concerning. 2x licks dropped off in managed section behind pond (come in from Shell garage entrance straight down and bare left of pond. 1 x lick in heather closer to Beacon Gill rd entrance.

All found!!

For the first (and probably last!) time ever! Including #44.  This confused me for quite a while! I counted 28 and then when I double-checked, one had hidden itself in a gorse bush and I couldn't find it for ages. But 28 found in total.  All looking happy by the coral :)

Unfortunately, I had to ask two ladies to put their dogs on a lead as they were running up to the cows and barking; some of the cows were getting a little skittish. (Interestingly they were the same dogs that ran through the work site on Sunday under poor control....). They didn't put dogs on a lead but did call them over and kept them under close control until they were well away from the cows.

7 seen

Had a lovely walk out on Caesar's on Sunday morning. Spotted 7 cattle between Long Bottom and the main track from Caesar's Camp past the lead exclusion area. All looking very content. Numbers seen were:

090
091 (I thought this one looked as though its eyes were rather bloodshot. Have reported to farm team)
101
106
107
114
593

#44 back on Caesars

#44 is back with the herd and appears to have broken the fence near to the corral in the process.  I will get the fence repaired at some point this week.

Little git!
