I decided to leave the cow field and walk to Draycott Sleights via a small country lane and I am glad I did because the field did have a large herd and  if I had continued walking thru the field I would have bumped right into then..I realize I sound over cautious but when you have  been surrounded by a herd of mooing cattle stamping their feet  at you  you learn very quickly to be very cautious !!!!So I am guarded on my walks and will take diversionary steps to avoid close contact which I had to do not long ago in January over here while walking over Draycott sleights and this happens again on this day as well because a large herd were gathering around the very gate I needed to [ass thru on this walk--so I diverted and glad I did because I also experienced some beautiful landscapes and scenes while descending a new area for me as shown in the next video.I will also share that previous January 2023 walk soon as well where you will see the efforts I made to avoid this Draycott Sleights herd that now wander most of the time here--ok they might not be dangerous but its not worth waiting to find out either--people have been killed by their own cows, by cows they thought they knew and trusted--cows and cattle are big beasts and are very curious, never out always to harm you and I do like cows...
