The three juveniles are thriving under Mrs G and Aran's continued care, proving once again what formidable parents they are. Long may the season continue to be be hassle-free as it nears the time for migration

    Mike, I saw that Heather was looking at the electricity box several times and that she posted on the chat that it looked to be the worst flooding she has seen there. Hope it is not a problem for the centre or for the cameras. (We were glued to the telly from 4 pm to watch the inauguration--first I watched one but wanted to celebrate the return of humanity and sanity to the office. Champagne with dinner, too. (Apologies for sharing my views! Other views are available elsewhere...))
    Thanks for the pics, Scylla, and the videos. Have you had the vaccine yet or can you go with your brother to get it? We have yet to hear, but expect to hear about our jabs in the next 4 to 6 weeks, fingers crossed.

    Ann, the electricity cabinet held overnight, live stream is still on and the water level has dropped considerably. One of the picnic tables is clearly visible with just water round the base of the legs. Cabinet is well clear. Phew!!

    Heather had swung onto the Mallards just as I stopped the downloader to get at the daylight hour-and-a-bit, so I may have missed the best of them - but the light is poor and the water looks a mess - not that the ducks seems to mind Grin

    G'night!

    Thanks, Mike, Scylla and Cirrus for comments and pics. Great that the water is finally going down and that the electricity cabinet held.

    Heather is hoping the devices they have at the VC will have stopped water getting in.

    ​Becci is going to go to the Visitor Centre as she has to collect some items to send out for the online shop. It is looking as though the road is now clear."

    Hopefully we'll hear more after Becci's visit.
