Arrived on site at about 1415 today and went onto the top of Brock's Hill as usual for my first look. I came down the east side after not seeing any cows and met a dog walker coming from the Test Track direction, he told me they had been NE of the path 10 minutes earlier so I set off in that direction. We are going to need a machete to navigate this part of the site soon. There were no traces of the cows in this direction.
The normally boggy ground here is dry and the ditches that normally contain water are just muddy. The Gelvert is not flowing; there is standing water in the stream bed to the south of the path but it is not flowing on the other side.
Heading for home I decided to check the far SW corner of the site (where I almost went on arrival) and there they were enjoying the cool shade. All look well. Several of them came to check me out to see if I was carrying anything for them.
