 Zig-zagged across the site but not one to be seen today.

10.30 Wed 27th Oct. 7 seen

 We decided to see if we could catch them out and do the litter picking around Gelvert and there by the fishing lake were 7 youngsters, 217, 220, 221, 222, 226, 228, and 230.  I wonder if we will see any on Friday. Stay Safe, Marina & Des

Just 7 and fixed gate tie

 Seven were grazing calmly just to the west of the upper fishing reservoir late on Tuesday afternoon.  Didn’t see any others.  Fixed gate which had become loose again. 

0900 Mon 25th Oct None

 We went to the locations where they were seen over the weekend, and the places were we had seen them before they were moved to Camp45, not a sign, well foot prints and poo but no actual cows. We are beginning to think they are avoiding us. Stay Safe, Marina & Des

Broken gate tie

The gate tie (an old bike inner tube!) to the little reservoir building off the track running south to north bordering Gelvert and Caesar’s has been cut so the gate is open.  Smart cattle could wander into Caesar’s if they found the gate.  I tried to make a temporary tie from what remained but it will only hold for a very short time. I have plenty more used inner tubes and can go back on Tuesday and repair it.  

Sunday 24th October - All 17 seen

All seventeen cattle were seen in the area around ///marmalade.shed.gloom at 08:15 this morning.  Sixteen were grazing in the surrounding bushes and trees.  230 was sat down chewing the cud.  He got up about 15 mins later and joined the others.  235 was using a tree to have a good scratch.  They were all fine.
