Big Freeze !



 The Big Freeze continues in Nairn, temperatures around minus the mid teens centigrade, even cold enough to freeze the running river !



                    I think the last time was around 20 odd years ago.

 Trying to keep Briget with enough unfrozen water takes me an hour every morning. 



Breaking and removing ice from the pond, She has to have breakfast too, of course ! The ice around the pond is lethal !



Slim and Sue flew in over the river from the sea, but realised they could not land.



 So circled round a couple of times before choosing the only area ice free,  just under the bailey bridge. 



Full marks to Sue for guiding the family, safely landing in formation under the bridge - excellent flying skill !

Forecast should see a thaw next week.
