We woke up to solid fog outside which had frozen on everything. Frosty ice was
covering rooftops. I could also see that all the trees were covered
in the rime ice. Cool! This meant a field trip straight away – if we
dallied too long, it would melt and we’d miss it. I grabbed a quick snack from the fridge while Eric went
downstairs to get a coffee. We met downstairs and went off to the wetlands I’ve been
talking about all week.
It was completely different scene there this morning compared to yesterday. Spent some time making some photo sketches there, saw some cool birds, several trees which had been taken down by a beaver, then popped over to St. John’s top see how much of the bridge we could see.
Yes, it was as cold as it looks.
