Icy Shoreline

Locals have been stopping at the shoreline to take pictures of the ice creeping up the trees.  Inevitably I wanted to check it out, so down we went a couple of days ago.  Lots of interesting ice coatings!

Thenarbour itself was full of ice, carried down the river, but held in the harbour by the waves off the bay.

A flock of gulls sat peacefully on the ice.

You can see the waves undulating the water as they roll toward the shore.
 

 


More ice tomorrow.

  7. Living along the shores of the Great Lakes sure has it's scenic advantages during all of our seasons. That's great that you are able to gain access close enough to nature's ice sculptures despite the obvious difficulties you and Mrs. FG must encounter.

  9. Super photo with a bare tree, an empty bench seat, and rolling waves. Winter gives us great opportunities to get those whites and greys together.
