LOVELY weather for ducks - and for anyone wanting a bit of fun on the Somerset Levels.

David Wilson has sent us these pictures of his group when they went out paddling on the rain-soaked land.

The flooding followed heavy rainfall over the festive period.

It led to emergency flood gates being closed at Cutts Road (East Lyng to Athelney); New Road (West Lyng to North Curry); and Langport Road (Muchelney to Langport).

Although motorists were unable to get through those roads, David said: "It was beautiful out on the water."
