Perfect duck weather! Today's rain brings joy to Malta & Gozo’s feathered friends
Not everyone hates the rain!

If today’s rainy weather is making you feel gloomy, you might take comfort in the fact that at least some creatures are having the time of their life out in the rain!

The weather page Maltese Islands Weather has shared an adorable photo of some ducks enjoying the showers by the sea, calling it ‘perfect duck weather’! One of the commenters identified the place as Xlendi, but you can be sure that ducks all over Malta and Gozo are enjoying this weather!

Meanwhile, the Department of Information also captured the beauty that rain can bring, sharing stunning photos of puddles reflecting Malta’s architecture, as well as a charming shot of a bird taking a refreshing sip from a rain puddle.

So, while we may be dodging puddles and reaching for our umbrellas, let’s take a moment to appreciate the simple joys that a rainy day can bring!

Have you noticing anyone enjoying the rain?
