I couldn’t stay home today knowing that the pond is finally freezing over. Tonight it might even snow, so I wanted to take a few more photos of strange ice formations before that happened.
Nature formed its own natural vases for these stalks, almost like blown glass.
Or, how about a new skirt?
Cool patterns in newly formed ice on the pond.
I didn’t get a photo of it, but as I was taking photos of leaves entombed in ice a tiny muskrat swam by under the ice. It was awesome! At first I thought it was a fish going past, but then I saw a long rat-like tail! At least I think it must have been a muskrat… hmmm… ?
I was all alone except for this ruddy duck that watched me from his not-yet-frozen part of the pond.
