Thursday 26th June - All 6 seen

Having been stuck on the M25 on Tuesday and beaten to it by Sarah on Wednesday I popped up to the site this morning.  NoFence told me that the cows were in the NW corner of the site but I found the ponies first on the eastern slope of Brock's Hill.  They all look really well but were troubled by flies this morning.  After a few of Gordon's nose rubs I went in search of the cows.  

Despite the long dry spell the NW corner remains boggy and you have to keep a sharp eye to avoid losing your shoe.  The cows were on the edge of the trees in amongst the tall grass.  They moved slowly as they grazed so I could not be sure whether or not 257 was limping.  Otherwise they appear fine.  As I turned to make my way back to the kissing gate the ponies appeared having followed me down.  As I left they were taking a drink from the "spring".
