Thursday 9th January

 Beautiful frosty morning.  I managed to 'ping' Eleanor, who was in the far NE corner, at the end of the lower track - and Dilly was there too.  They looked well, even if they seemed not to be doing anything.  The ponies were also at the far end of the reserve, about half way up the hill from the cows, and grazing voraciously.  This meant a clamber up the hill, but it was achieved, and the ice in the 'far' trough broken.  I had already broken the ice on the trough near the main entrance.

I met a young lad who was bird-watching on the pools - he pointed out lapwings and a green sandpiper to me - I took his word, as I only had binoculars, but saw the bird.

  1. It seems that Eleanor has disappeared from the map, and the reserve is no longer highlighted. Maybe as the collar didn't work the subscription has been cancelled?

  3. She may jump over the moon occasionally and be out of touch.
