Nice weather for ducks..... by happypat

Nice weather for ducks.....

This part of the field was flooded today although the footpath on the bank much drier.
This is the area Connie normally loves to run & flush out any ducks that might be hiding in the reeds....I doubt she would be going in there today.

Three good things:
1. A very lazy morning, I slept badly so had a bit of a lie in.
2. We are half way through January, the worst month of the year in my opinion.
3. Some new stone around the new style in the field....a bit less muddy.
Gosh you have a paddy field here!! Hasn’t the weather been ghastly?! However, you are right good weather for ducks!
I think Connie is a spaniel isnt she? Well I imagine she wouldn’t to too deterred from this terrain!

So much water everywhere! Floods all around us too. One way to wash dog on a walk!

So soggy Pat ,and the weather forecast does not. sound too promising .Jan And Feb are certainly the most depressing months .although tonight we did. Notice the day extending a little
January 17th, 2021  
Just like all our surrounding fields. More rain on Weds here,🙁
January 17th, 2021  
Oh dear does look a bit soggy..Hate to say it but we could do with some of that rain..
Good to hear they are upkeeping the walkways for you..
January 17th, 2021  
But you have green, and lots of it, in January! My world is brown and white. So...it could be worse, it could be snowing!
January 17th, 2021  
You are so right about January! And not even any good movies or cosy cinemas as compensation.
January 17th, 2021  
It does look dreary and wet!
I am with you about January - though February is close on its' heels in regards to dreariness around here!
January 17th, 2021  
Hmm welly weather. Grateful we haven't had too much of that recently.
Hope you have a good sleep tonight x
January 17th, 2021  
It looks like more rain is on the way Pat! I've just watched the weather forecast, Stay dry!
January 17th, 2021  
So much water lying around at the moment
January 17th, 2021  
You certainly have a damp outlook. I can’t remember when we last had a spate of inclement weather. An odd day now and again, yet largely we’ve had no signs of Winter and/or inclement weather. Long may it continue...although farmers and growers need some good weather.
January 17th, 2021  
Oooh looks a bit squelchy around there Pat. It has dried up very slightly around here today, just in time for more rain tomorrow.
January 17th, 2021  
I think its amazing that you can access all the walks with a stile! I don't think Connie is going to like getting wet just yet!

@lucycameron It’s always damp & squelchy down there Lucy, hence those reedy things!
January 17th, 2021  
@casablanca Ha yes just walk them through the puddles!
January 17th, 2021  
@beryl As the day lengthens the cold strengthens....wonder if that will be true this year Beryl.
January 17th, 2021  
@boxplayer Yes bad forecast Tuesday/Wednesday.
January 17th, 2021  
@julzmaioro There’s me envying you your summer....looks lovely in NZ just now!
January 17th, 2021  
@bkp That’s true...always lovely & green!
January 17th, 2021  
@judithg Oh yes we are missing our trips to the cinema...back row & butties!
January 17th, 2021  
@farmreporter I agree but February is shorter!
January 17th, 2021  
@sarah19 I did go through a bad patch but wide awake now at bedtime! Snooker on so no bed yet! Just catching up with commenting until it’s finished!
January 17th, 2021  
@busylady I get fed up with the rain...it’s damp enough in this house!
January 17th, 2021  
@denful The fields are looking more like lakes!
January 17th, 2021  
@s4sayer Lucky Margo....we do get fed up with the rain...
January 17th, 2021  
@jantan Same here Jan...paths were much drier than the other day.
January 17th, 2021  
@maggiemae We have lots of styles & little gates on various walks, they are all well used at the moment, lots of footmarks.
January 17th, 2021  
@gijsje No it wasn’t too bad today, just a sneaky little wind in the river bank.
January 17th, 2021  
Oh wow, this looks soggy, I hope you were wearing wellies.
January 17th, 2021  
Yikes glad you don’t have to walk through that. Yes, this is a dreary month!
January 18th, 2021  
Looks like Oregon
January 18th, 2021  
Wow! That looks soggy!
January 18th, 2021  
That certainly is a lot of water
January 18th, 2021  
I agree! Not crazy about January! Glad to hear there’s a stone by the style so it’s less muddy!
January 18th, 2021  
Could be snow.
January 18th, 2021  
Agree with you on Januari, and February is just better because it’s shorter 😉
January 18th, 2021  
It would seem better if it would just stop raining
January 18th, 2021  
Looks a bit soggy. Wishing you better February weather. Hope your lazy day was a restful and nap-filled, Pat. Take care of your sweet self. xx
