Thursday 13th July staff check

Lovely day on the meadows. Lots of butterflies and skylarks about.

Will schedule in some path cutting along the rail line path and around the southern kissing gate.

Didn't see anyone on my walk, very quiet.

Thanks for your time,

Sam

*All livestock off site* Fri 28th June

Hello all, 

The cattle have all (reluctantly) left Barton Meadows and are now squelching around Winnall. 

Thank you all for your hard work and Sam will be in touch shortly.

Wednesday 26th June

 All 9 cows sheltering in the shade by the road. Look content, no problems seen.

Cow put back in (Grazing Team)

Report of cow out, now back in. Found one piece of top strand barb wire which was low so have re-tensioned. Cows sprayed for flies.

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.

Friday 21st

All 9 cows good. Water trough working fine. A lot of flies on the cows.

Sun 16 Jun

All 9x cows seem well - grazing lots and moving very little. Trough fine.

Lots of pyramidal orchids flowering outside the enclosures, near Courtenay Road.
