Thursday 31st October

 Found all 49 sheep today. 

30 came to me to be fed sheep nuts none of these were limping and all looked healthy.

There were another 8 (5 WFW, 3 Shetlands) out on North slope which didn't come to me

and a further 11 (5 WFW, 6 Shetlands) just under the nearby trees on the edge of the bowl.

Luckily, one of these 6 Shetlands was on the edge of the woodland.

Plenty of food, water near full, no dogs seen in compartment (or central), a few dog walkers

outside the compartments.

"No Fence, on Bonfire"on both sides of the gate and "Keep Out" on the post as you head from the

Eastern Side. I suspect children messing about,  but the weather will remove it as it is in chalk.

Wednesday 30th October

All 49 sheep located. 15 WFW & 34 Shetland. 

Spotted 2 x Shetland limping both front right leg. I couldn't get close enough to check numbers pictured below. 

1 x WFW limping, back left leg (he also had a lot of branches stuck in his coat). All three not severe, but notable. 

One black Shetland purposely wedging his head through vehicle gate to get fresh grass. Pictured below. He struggled to wiggle out of the fence. 

All Gates and fencing fine, but noticed chalk graffiti on some of the gates. Pictured below, should wash off after a good rain shower. 

Water troughs full, sheep nuts tub full. 

Shooting heard from farmland North side of the site.

3 x Dog walker and 9 dogs spotted nearby, but outside the reserve. Some on leads, some not. 

One of shetlands limping 

Silly sheep, waiting for me to leave so he could wedge his head back in the fence.
