Geese & Gulls Reflecting On Ice

Cambridge Creek has had a few thin-ice freeze-overs this past January and February.  During those days, the visiting birds would dwindle down to just the gulls and geese.

Watching them rest, walk around, take-off, and land on the ice was interesting to watch.  Sometimes they outweighed the ice’s strength.

The shining sun melting the ice sometimes produced a mirror-effect when the lighting and time of day were just right.

Some of my favorites…..
