52 Weeks of Urban Nature Week Nine: Frosty Edition

We finally have winter! We’re in the midst of a blizzard here in DC today. I love snow, so this is absolute heaven for me (yes, even though it requires some shoveling). Next week I’d imagine you’ll be seeing a snow photo, but the storm arrived too late for this week’s picture. Week Nine’s photo is of ice that formed over a tributary of Rock Creek. It was a thin layer of ice with moving water underneath (well, a little — the stream is not very deep right there), but I loved the patterns and textures of the ice.

For everyone on the East Coast, enjoy the wintery weather and stay safe!
