Crow and Moorhen on an Icy Pond In Scotland

Took these the other day when it was really frosty. The pond was mostly frozen and I put seeds down and a crow appeared then the resident moorhen couldn't resist the allure of the seeds! Was fun to watch them.

    Those birds look like they're willing to give each other space.

    The ice makes life a bit more difficult for them, but I confess that I love watching them try to figure it out.

    We have had some ice on lakes and ponds this year. It is beautiful, and the ice skaters have finally had a chance to try out their skates.

      We don't have that so much over here as we normally don't get the lakes or ponds frozen enough! Just these guys! :-D
