Strays. Disturbed by the roadside, jumped fence and disappeared up into the woodland.

Recently shorn stray stock on road. Ideally should report to local grazier, Matthew Gregory, or Parks and Conservation (Namadgi Visitor C entre is closest), before they are involved in any vehicle collisions. But as it is now almost 24 h later I will email PCS, as its likely the animals have been dealt with already.
