Tuesday 30 may

All 20 sheep lined up ready to be counted when I arrived, I couldn't see any lameness. I think I misread a message from last week (sorry), its the pot inside the bucket that is missing, can anyone take over a yoghurt or flower pot for us to rattle, don't want the sheep to associate food with the red bucket. They are a somewhat over friendly lot, watch your toes!

Monday 29th may

I've just looked up to check the water trough, looks fine. Red bucket is in place. Nettles are healthy! 20 sheep by path to the trough, lined up to make counting easy. I have not fed them, I'll be back tomorrow and wasn't sure if anybody else was coming up today.

Sunday 28th May

 All well today - again sheep were by the Hampshire gate. All seem to be walking ok. Beware they are very strong and friendly - if you have food.  Have taken the red dustbin with food to tree near water trough (look out for nettles if in shorts - they told me they don't sting this month!!) Probably need a small container for decanting feed. Water ok - didn't look as though any had been drinking. Gates all ok. One family - no dog.  Pippa Evans pp    Tim

Friday 26th May

Tim & I found the 20 sheep in the shade at the western boundary of the Central compartment. One Whitefaced Woodland was obviously limping - right front leg. Water level in the trough OK and no bucket of nuts to be seen. The Whitefaced Woodlands were very friendly and some came right up to us.          Pippa & Tim Evans
