Sunday morning, up & out quite early.
Decided to head to the Somerset Levels.
We were intrigued to see for ourselves the extent
of the floods following the recent snow & rain.
The best place to view this is at Burrow Mump, Burrowbridge.
Although plenty to see from ground level,
once at the top of this small hill,
you're able to view as far as the eye can see.
The hill was surrounded with blue skies & yet,
even though the sun tried to come out over the flooded fields,
there was a chill with a hazy mist in the distance.
The floods invaded field after field,
which was about the only thing that was visible,
as far in the distance as it was possible to see.
In fact, so much so,
that this huge expanse of water was
attracting many wild geese & birds, even sightings of swans.
A real haven for them at the moment.

The scenery is beautiful, what a shame that there is so much water but the birds must be pleased.

Looks like most of the valleys are covered with water. Great pictures of the conditions.
