Walking our bulls off the conservation grazing job they’ve been on for a couple of months - off to fill their bellies on deferred grass.

A little dawn wander down the road this morning for our Angus group (including bonus Dilly
Bean at the back!!)

A windy morning for the Angus micro mob!

Fresh bite, and they can tuck into the treeline if they need to for shelter so they should be absolutely fine as this weather blows through 🌱

Water coming off the hill nice and clear.
Permanent pasture delivering the goods after snow and rain 🌱🌱

If cows look like this when I go to move them, then I’m happy.

If they are desperate to move and stressed they are not putting energy into laying down fat or making milk.

Outwintering requires fat, content cows.

After moving #TheWeeMob Yeaterday I spotted this lovely toad crawling through the residuals.

Tall grass creates lots of cover and habitat for a range of grassland species, including amphibians! 🐸

(Although they would usually be heading into hibernation at this time of year 🫤)
