Fairly cold here....

Have a look at this! It`s soooo cold here this morning that we`ve got inch long ice spikes on everything! The plants in these pictures aren`t spikey plants, they`re smooth. The spikes are purely frost....




I`ve been trying to get a decent photo of this little guy for ages. He follows me everywhere when I`m in the garden hoping for some food! lol He`s the sweetest little Robin you ever did see. (Which covers all of them really being as they all look the same)

Re: Fairly cold here....

Yeah it`s odd isn`t it. It`s called a Hoarfrost apparently. It`s weird because only certain things have frost on them....

Re: Fairly cold here....

Was minus six when got in the car this morning, nice not to have to scrape the windows tho as the hoarsfrost needs something "bumpy" to grip to and it wont settle on the windows.

Re: Fairly cold here....

I can't complain....we're at about 38-42 degrees right now!

I do live on the coast, so occasionally--like 2 weeks ago--we get our share of snow and below 20 degree weather!

Stay warm everyone!
