Wednesday 17th September - COW MOVE

All four girls moved to Bramshot today, they're very happy about the new location!

Tuesday 16 September

 Lovely day, found them all in a clearing on canal side. They all looked calm.114 posed for her photo, she had a ‘blackish blister’ on the side her tail at the top. 216 and 225 happily munching heather and 108 was having a sit down, I couldn’t see any problems.

Mon 15th - three seen

Three girls grazing around the path at the north end of the site. 225 not seen, map looked like she could be close by deeper in the greenery but I couldn't get there. 

216 having a lovely time hoovering up every acorn she could find! Also she's using the fence as a scratching post - still looks very solid but was wobbling a little bit. 

Sun 14th - none found

Thurs 11th - all good

Went at lunch time today (just dodging downpours). 

114 and 216 in the north east of the site (///emerald.replayed.rashers), right up by the fence line. Couldn't get to them from in the site, but could see them from the path alongside the stream/creek and both looking well. Map showed the other two to be nearby but must have been too hidden in the greenery for me to see. 

Friday 12th September

Only viewed from afar today at W3W: bluff.gallons.ports but all there!

2.00pm

Weds 10th - all good

Quick visit this morning as pouring it down and couldn't find my waterproof trousers! 

All four eating together around the trees in the middle of the space. 108 and 114 taking the more sensible approach of sheltering under the trees, other two out in the open. All seem fine and content despite the rain. 

Mon 8th - hiding but good

All four behind the trees in the bottom right corner. 

Could hear lots of stomping but couldn't see them, but found the little path down from the water and they were all down there. Everyone having breakfast together, all seemed content! 

Friday 5th September

All 4 found at W3W: protrude.pink.taker

All fine, chewing the cud. Greta (225) very vocal! Ginseng, (216) has no collar. Lots of annoying flies around them all.

12.00 noon

Friday 5th September - Staff Check + gate fixed

Hi all, pedestrian gate now fixed and the middle field gate re-opened to allow the girls free range of both ends of the site. 

I've put an invisible exclusion zone in around the pedestrian gate, I believe it was broken because they were scratching themselves on it! 

Girls all well and good today. 

Before and after of the gate below. Have a good weekend.

Zoe 

All good

 After I made it over the gate, I am very out of practice at 5 bar gate jumping. All happy

Weds 3rd - soggy but good

All four by the gate looking a bit soggy but fine. 

114 had what looked to be a spot of blood on her left shoulder but no visible cut or wound. Tried to get a picture but the black and white one kept trying to mount her so couldn't get close - zoomed in pic below. 

Otherwise all good! Black and white looked to be missing her left ear tag. 

Grey Parrot

 He has been found.

Grey parrot

 Hi All

Judith again, I have just done a circuit to get my bearings and met Jason who was looking for his grey parrot, It flew off last night. I said I would put it on our blog should anyone of you see him.

I have let him know we will keep an eye out.

His name is Jason 07785 518488.

Tuesday 2 September

 Hello All

First day as cow looker today and I am glad to say I found them quite quickly. All were looking fine, no scratches, nice and clean. Content. 108 was on her own and had wandered into the gorse. The rest were together in the heather, happily munching.

Monday 1st September - COW UPDATE

Hi all 

One of the pedestrian gates near the stream has been vandalised (either by human or cow!) And is on the floor. 

For the time being I have locked the cows in corral side (northern end of site) and padlocked the gate separating the two halves of the site whilst I arrange repairs. 

I'll keep you updated 

But the girls were all looking healthy and well today! 

Kind Regards 

Zoe 

All good

 Under the trees looking very content.
