Cattle update

We welcomed 30 cattle onto the island today and they will be with us for the winter. 

Letting the second delivery of cows onto the Reserve.
 A mixed beef herd, they have come from a local farm very close to the reserve near Lowick. The animals are chosen because they are steady around people but still do a great job of grazing the dunes. Please take note of any signs around the reserve as they'll let you know where the cattle are grazing.
Off to explore their new home for the coming months. There's roughly 100 ha for them to roam.
