Meet King our new horse! Trying to find another heavy horse that would fit into our herd, and the work that we do at Running Deer CIC is no easy thing.
General Information
My first two weeks at Running Deer

What else happens in a woodland?
In Butterdon Wood, the home of Running Deer CIC, we don't just limit our activities to running around, bush craft and fires. We also do arts and crafts.
Birds and nests
May is the busiest month for birds, as they nest, lay eggs and care for their young. Here at Running Deer it is easy to spot a number of interesting and beautiful birds going around their daily business.
Running Deer Wildlife Survey
For an hour of our school day, a survey on the wildlife in Butterdon wood was completed. The woods have truly sprung into life in recent weeks, and the wildlife are hard at work.

Cisco is 5 years old now and it's clear that he needs and wants a job at Running Deer CIC. He's come a long way since he came to us as a wild Dartmoor pony.
