2.30pm, Mon 19 Feb, all 8 ponies seen in D4 area, all looking well

Today is my first day as 'looker' on Long Valley. I was pleased to spot the ponies straight away from the top of Brock Hill!

Initally 6 ponies were close together with 2 slightly adrift but they caught up with each other.

They looked to be well. I watched them for quite some time and they became curious and a couple of them approached me whilst the others looked and stared .. then went about their business of grazing.
