 I found 7 . Saw the numbers of 6 of them, it was either 212 or Thomas I could not find but they may have been in the dense bushes. They were spread out some chilling some eating

Tried very hard again today. Lots of tracks and evidence but we could not find them!

Three seen in I2 in dense bushes on Friday could not find them today

 

Tues 16th - staff check

All 8 seen eventually emerging from the trees at the eastern end of the site. 2 showing bare patches on their shoulders  will be reported to the grazing team.

3 seen on track in I3 went into bushes very quickly

 We saw 3 , I think the others where in the bushes as we could hear them

Also saw a low flying buzzard. Also heard a cuckoo

All seen in F8 this evening looking good

 

Broken gate - J7

Monday 8th May. 

I know you have no cattle on site so not an emergency but I've just taken a walk and found the entrance gate into the reserve at J7 is broken (see photos below). Two planks are next to it but no sign of the other parts. 

I've also left a message on the office voicemail.
