Loads of hair ice around on a walk today. Never seen it before. Apparently temperature has to be just right and a specific type of fungus has to be in the wood. #winter #hairice
Apparently ok #HairIce conditions this week! This type of ice, which is actually fun to talk about unlike some other ice, occurs under some rare conditions. Fallen twigs and logs in broad leaf forest, temperatures around freezing, and humid, plus it needs some Exidiopsis effusa fungus that just really likes hair styling. The 4th photo is not actually hair ice, it's just the curly fries version of needle ice, which in a just world would be called toupe ice.
Look at it!!!!

Late autumn details from the forrest and bog.
I was so happy to see hair ice for the first time (or nisseskæg as we call it in Denmark)
