 9 - 9:15  All well this morning. They were all at the trough. Walked round checking the fence. They followed me until they got bored.  Skylarks, yellowhammers, and great tits singing.  Grace, are they being taken off now, or do you need them checking next week too?

 8:35 - 8:50 All well this morning. All 8 were grazing in the open area at the end. Fences along road were all ok.  By the time I started driving home, they were at the water trough.
