Saturday 31st May

Hot humid day on the Hill, heard a Lesser Whitethroat (according to Merlin), on the way up to the top gate. Unfortunately they weren't there, but found them grazing away just down from the corral. They all looked really good and happy. 



Fri 30th - staff and volunteer check

Ponies all looking really well and a lot of mutual grooming going on.  It was Hoopy and Doune this time with Kat trying to get in on it.  Water supply and salt licks all fine.

Thursday - staff check

Ponies all chilling out in the shade of the corral on Thursday, all looking really fit and well. A few flies

Wednesday 28th May

 3 of us looking for ponies, started at the bottom, they were right at the top. The breeze up there might have been keeping some of the flies off them, They looked well. Both troughs full. Some pyramid orchids on the verge.

Saturday 24th May

Muggy and humid day on the Hill, with the ponies conveniently cooped up in the corral...well not cooped up, although they did seem a bit fed-up. Even Flam was a little reticent to come and say Hello. But they all looked well, just maybe a few more flies today. Yesterday we were lucky to witness Kat and Hoopy having a mutual grooming session, particularly nice as hopefully it shows Hoopy has been fully integrated.
