​Warm and dry. In the early morning, I moved cows into 6th split in NG1. Now, watering on (upgraded) east side tank. Active prairie dog is in the center of section 11, split with NG1 and NG7, which now includes a family of burrowing owls.

​Cool morning, then turning pretty warm in the afternoon. Attended ACES meeting in afternoon, and returned too late to move cows. Paddock was grazed close with good impact. Someone without a fuller context of the paddock history, would likely say the site was grazed too close.
