Found all 49 sheep, 48 are healthy but the Shetland with the encroaching horn (as mentioned last Wednesday) seems to be bothered by his right eye which he keeps blinking (the right horn appears very close to the eye).
1 WFW has a lot of bramble in his coat but it doesn't seem to bother him.
The usual WFW was in the Eastern Compartment (just into the undergrowth). By talking to him he came to me and then followed me back to the kissing gate. He seemed reluctant to come all the way back into the central compartment but he did so after a couple of minutes (when I stood right back).
All the other sheep were around the lower slopes and nearby bushes which were more sheltered from the wind.
The sheep nuts are about 75% full and the water in the troughs was full (and unfrozen).
No dog walkers seen on the reserve or the nearby Clarendon Way today (3 walkers without dogs seen).
