DeleteSo happy to be back here Ananka! And even more with this very curious photos! I have never seen anything like this, it's something unusual for me. Is it a creature or is it ice that froze interestingly!

Promise to be more visible in the blog world <3

DeleteIs candy floss what we in the States call cotton candy? Because that's what it looks like to me.
ReplyDeleteYes Kirk! Cotton Candy. We call it Candy Floss over here :-D
DeleteAnanka, I don't know what Hair Ice is!
ReplyDeleteIt is a strange natural phenomenon that appears under certain conditions during colder periods :-D

ReplyDeleteYes Mana :-D
DeleteMagical!
ReplyDeleteIt really is Bill :-D
DeleteTotally new to me and very appealing. It seems to occur in isolation; there is no snow or other ice anywhere visible in your pictures.
ReplyDeleteHave a look online. It growns on rotten wood where certain fungi grown. Apparently discovered in 1918! To quote the Met Office site:
Delete"The conditions required for the formation of hair ice are extremely specific, hence the relative scarcity of sightings. To form, moist rotting wood from a broadleaf tree is required with the presence of moist air and a temperature slightly below 0 °C. It is generally confined to latitudes between 45°N and 55°N."
I must have just been lucky!
Muy interesante a la vista. Me ha gustado tus fotos.
ReplyDeleteQue tengas un excelente día.
Glad you like them, thanks :-D
DeleteBoa tarde. Uma excelente tarde terça-feira com muita paz e saúde. Muito interessante, nunca vi neve e também, nada igual.
ReplyDeleteToo hot where you are Luiz! Thanks :-D
DeleteWe have it here in Sweden too, but I'we never seen it in real life.
ReplyDeleteMaybe one winter you will get it see it. It is a joy to see. Thanks Tony :-D
DeleteI've never seen this before. How lovely, and magical, and something I probably would never have known about if I hadn't read your blog today.
ReplyDeleteIt looks very magical :-D Glad to educate people! Good to learn new stuff :-D
