Tuesday 13 aug
All 50 present in the western edge woodland. One wfw appears not to be able to stand on his left foreleg, photos attached. As instructed I didn't approach. I could not get in a position to see an ear tag let alone get the number but did have a red mark on his neck, although if it is blackberry juice that won't help find him! All photos are of the same animal. All the rest looked in fine fettle, I'm fact they seemed peckish this morning. Water and food ok. Gates ok although I haven't checked the top ones leading in to the footpath. No visitors so far. Guy
