Dark day on the Hill with the wind whipping over the hill making it feel blooming freezing! Eleanor and Dilly were by the western trough, and looked pretty relaxed about the whole thing. Eleanor's right eye-lid was looking a bit crusty but nothing to cause any issues and Dilly's face and head was covered in mud and dirt! It looked like she'd stuck her head in a pile of mud. As I walked on looking for the ponies I spotted the offending pile of mud. Looks like she'd been rubbing her head against a low bank a little way up the path! Scratching or feeding? Do cows need scratching posts??
The ponies were at the top end of the site, mostly huddled down together, with Kat overseeing them. Flam looked really tired and not with it, which is unlike her, so something to keep an eye on. Doune was sticking pretty close to her, and she is very protective. Other than that no obvious issues other than looking really chilly.
