A couple of weeks ago I was birding with the group on a cold and icy morning. It was so icy I put on my spikes.
Part of the path we were on passes by an industrial complex and I found myself being distracted by the patterns in the ice in a parking lot.
I see a turtle with perhaps a Fibonacci circle on its shell.
I love all the circles like bubbles, and the swirl.
I’m birding with a friend this morning so I’ll be late getting to your blogs, and comments.
Happy Wednesday!
more to come…

I love that sort of art. 🙂

Wow they are quite unusual ice patterns Deborah, and appears very cold, considering how hot it is here at present with some of the hottest days on record in some areas.

I’d be distracted too. I love ice formations and you caught some nice ones!

I love seeing patterns in ice. These are great photos. In the last photo, the circle at the bottom looks like a bird is standing on it.
I hope birding went well today.

Brr! Stay warm! The only ice I’ve seen here is on the birdbath yesterday morning.

Happy abstractions. I saw a turtle before I read your text. Austin got wintry precipitation so I went out not birding but icicling.

I saw your turtle immediately; the second photo just is what it is, but it’s very attractive. My birds’ frozen water bowls didn’t present such fun patterns.

A turtle! Yes! With, it seems, ancient messages witten on it. Well spotted! And a wonderful picture on top of it.
