Monday 27th January

 All 20 sheep found and healthy although a few are missing some of their coat (see the 2 below)



Water troughs full, sheep nuts about 1/2 full.

Is there a better place for the sheep nuts than over the barbed wire fence ?, I am 1.78m tall with long arms, but I can just reach !!


All gates are fine, but I did find 2 trees were down

First fallen tree, this was on the South fence downhill (West) from the Kissing gate near where the HIWWT vehicle was parked (I don't think the sheep could get over here)




Second fallen tree, this one is on the eastern fence, about 35-40m uphill (South) from the locked gate.

This one has pushed the fence down a lot so I think the sheep could escape here.
