rain, rain and more rain

Well, it has rained for days and days and days and everything is flooded. The fields are flooded, the roads are flooded, everything's flooded. Here are some pictures.

This is the road outside my house. Have to keep the wellies in the car.

Happy ducks in the field below the house.

To get to the house is an obstacle race as the rain has made so many of the (once dry-) stone walls collapse.

This is a field in Sineu with garzas wading about happily.

Of course, what fell as rain down here fell as snow on the mountains. Pretty but chilly. Pretty chilly.

But finally the rain has gone and the sun has come out again, so we had a lovely sunset yesterday evening.

Eugene and his harem go to roost in their tree.

And this is what it looks and sounds like. (Forgot the camera so another poor-quality video)
