Wednesday 25th of February

All 37 sheep found (sorry when I originally published this I didn't provide the total). 

Misty morning with Kites flying and, surprisingly as it's 20 past 9, tawny owl calling; I thought it was only me who was running late this morning. 

Western side of the down has five wfw and one Shetland.
Central section of down has 16 Shetland, and 15 wfw. Well that was easier than usual.

Water troughs and gates all ok, no walkers, dogs or, sadly, fox, seen.
