At approximately 8.15am travelling to work through Hovingham, on the Brandsby Road, I saw what looked to be a sheep, but then noticed it had a long tail, it was black, slightly smaller than a sheep, and was crouched to the ground as if it were eating, it was facing away from me.

It was probably about 50 metres away from me in the middle of the field that is part of the estate ... the one opposite the one with the bridge in.
