2-16-21 not so nice ice

Pretty to look at but treacherous. Glad I did my errands yesterday. At some point soon I will have to put another bird feeder out, the poor birdies land on the feeder and look quizzically at the seed encased in the ice and wonder why they can’t get to it.
Three good things:
1. Watson was quick about his business this morning
2. It is just above freezing so when the rain stops, hopefully it will melt
3. Clean out the freezer and make chili sort of day
Nicely captured, but I agree - ice is not welcomed. Currently 10 degrees here and snow with yesterday's ice already covering the ground. I wish I had filled the feeders on Sunday - too slick to get to them now.

I think any bird that lands on that tree will slide off again. Amazing to see all that ice like that.

That’s incredible but scary looking! Can’t imagine what it’s like to walk when it’s like that!

Beautiful but dangerous

Pretty magical when this happens

Stunning...but treacherous. I've reached the age where my first thought when I see ice is, 'I don't want to break anything'.

Very pretty but a sure sign of the cold outside!

@happypat hmmm, I never thought of that!

@judithg one doesn’t!

@peggysirk me too...especially living alone...

@maggie208 I so agree!

Be careful out there. I'm sure you always have your phone when you go outside - just in case...

@peggysirk I do! And I also hold on firmly to the handrail when going to the basement or attic! My mother’s great aunt lay in a heap at the bottom of the stairs for three days with a broken hip (from which she did recover)

@bkp fair enough!
