It looks like Ratty is having a lovely time in those shallows - that second shot is great, shows the thick tail well and the whiskers of course. My sightings have all been at dusk watching them slide gracefully into the water! Marvellous creatures and they've learnt how to eat toads without getting poisoned which is a bonus for us all.
Cheers

Hi Barbara: See a few swimming across main lagoon in full sunlight, but, yes, dusk is more their thing. And they do love freshwater mussels.
