Monday 11th August - Jo

 Checked cattle today, the 2 in Ashley Meadow were near the pasture pump which made me worry it wasn't working, but it was fine. They looked happy enough and eating away, saw them later as I went back past and they were sitting in full sun, I thought it foolish not to be in the shade. 

Onto the Western Fen and walked to the viewing screens first in the hope I might catch a glimpse of the 3 on my way by, no such luck. Opted for walking down the eastern fence line to try and find them, as I approached the reeds 2 appeared, walking on a mission, headed past me and towards the pasture pump. There was no sign of the 3rd cow, as I was stood in the middle of the fen with no indication which way I should go, I caught a glimpse of it at the southern end, munching away on reeds. So it appears they may not really be one herd as this meant the 2 groups were at opposite ends of the compartment. All of them seemed happy and well though.
