Looks like the sun is out over #Kingseat, #Fife. Looking forward to wander around Dunfermline later on. Then dinner with my nephew and (no doubt) a Marvel movie.

During our Hillwalking Club Christmas walk near #Dunkeld today we came across many bits of #HairIce in the beechwoods - especially on #Kingseat.
I have only seen it a couple of times before.

Here's some details about it...

Hair Ice

Hair ice is a rare type of ice formation where the presence of a particular fungus in rotting wood produces thin strands of ice which resemble hair or candy floss.
