Our Grazer of the Week this week is Houdini the Hebridean Sheep.
Houdini and field mate Steve McQueen (can you guess what they have been up to lately?) are an important part of North Wales Wildlife Trusts management work at Bridge Craft Meadow, a Coronation Meadow near Holt.
Bridge Craft Meadow is a receptor site for locally sourced wildflower seeds from one of the Trusts nearby nature reserves, Old Pulford Brook Meadows. The meadow is being managed as a best-practise example of a low intensity flood plain meadow. A local grazier has provided two hebridean sheep, who have been helping with the necessary grazing on the site.
As you can probably tell from their names, they kept the land managers busy with a foiled escape attempt recently! They are now safely back on site and continuing their good work.
Would you like to show off your grazing animals? You can enter your animals for the chance to feature as ‘Grazer of the Week’ by using #grazeroftheweek and tagging @pontcymru on Instagram and Facebook. Tell us a bit about you and your animals, we love to hear your stories.
