Frozen Fringes


One of our streams is still frozen over


but trying to reappear.


At the other end of the pond
the other stream is flowing


frilly ice reaches out over the water


or grows into stalactites that kiss the watery surface.


Sometimes it reaches out over the stream
looking a bit like some kind of musical instrument.


Chimes perhaps


Clinking glasses


Encrusting rocks and weeds


Beautiful filigree lace


Ice jam under the bridge.
Brrr I'm feeling quite cold after this post!

  5. The river outside our building is still frozen solid so no running water in sight for us. The poor ducks keep flying over looking for open water.
