A gorgeous winter walk ruined by hunting for cows and ponies! I jest of course, Eleanor and Dilly were close the the lower trough, basking in the late morning sunshine. The trough had pretty thick ice in it, and the garden trowel I brought with me was insufficient for the task, so had to restore to boot heel and trying to stop before the whole foot became submerged. I did remember my rubber gloves though, worried looks from the cows, to ease the removal of the chunks of ice. So anyway the cows looked great. The ponies were found at the top of the site, in the sunny glade area, still munching away frantically. Hoopy was grumpy, at least she stomped as I got near, and the others way too busy eating to take the slightest notice of me. Flam's coat, is a lovely shade of red in the sunlight and she's starting to resemble a fluffy teddy bear. Again they all looked great and couldn't see any discharge or gunk in Hoopy's eye.
