Cattle at Bix Manor Farm

It was hot, but instead of finding shade these cows were huddled together in the open middle of the field, each trying to be the centre of the pack. Perhaps these were the young cows who had not yet learnt. The picture is level; the stile and the sign are not.

Footpath north from Bix

This footpath crosses a large arable field, recently cropped. It goes to the right of the telegraph pole and heads for Bushey Copse on the horizon on the north side of the square.
