Cow put back in (Grazing Team)
Monday 24th
(writing on Tuesday lunchtime) All 9 cows present and correct on Monday evening, no limping and no visible injuries. The bolt on the metal cover on of the water trough mechanism was off so I was able to swivel it to have a look - I don't know if it was always like that and I've been unobservant, or if that's new. I have photos but I need to send them from my phone to the computer.
Just seen on the neighbourhood group chat that the cows have escaped - I swear I shut and locked the gate behind me last night.

All 9 cows grazing in the far corner by the houses, looking content and well. Lots of lovely flowers and butterflies to see.
