Behind the Old Mill (see previous post) there is an island in the river, and if you walk across that island, you come to the “untamed” part of the river:

Frozen Flood
Yesterday I very nearly did not bring my camera, just going out for a quick (hmm!) short walk to post a letter. “There can’t possibly be anything interesting along that way on a grey and snow-free winter day,” I thought to myself. But then I grabbed the camera anyway…
And it turned out nature along the familiar path surprised me, once again – as my familiar paths sometimes do. This time I found a frozen lake - where there usually is no lake!
In April, this is one of the close-to-home spots where I go looking for wood anemones! (…not water lilies…)

Watery Wednesday: Frozen Puddle
Some of the last autumn leaves blown off the trees in the storm that passed by here on Sunday… Followed by colder weather with a bit of frost here and there on the morning after.

Watery Wednesday: Hovering Ice
Crossing a footbridge over the river, looking down…
I noticed the hovering ice formations by the riverside:
Mysteriously repetitive patterns, like fringes of ice-lace.

Watery Wednesday: Icicles
Icicles on a rock wall quite close to the town centre.
The camera can be very deceptive sometimes…
completely cutting out the town environment!

My Calendar 2011 *March* + Watery Wednesday
Last winter it was February that was the coldest and snowiest month. (This winter so far it was December. An exception to the rule, because usually January and February are colder here.) This picture of the ice finally breaking up and going away was taken on 24th March, 2010. I hope we won’t have to wait that long for the first signs of spring this year…
For more wet pictures, go visit Watery Wednesday.

Watery Wednesday: Four Days of Thaw
▲ Friday 14 January
▼ Tuesday 18 January
It may look like spring is on its way; but we probably have
two months or so of “ups and downs” to get through yet…

A Fishy Ice Sculpture
An ice sculpture in the town square has become a tradition.
This year a fish. Last year it was a polar bear.

Wintry Reflections
We’ve had a cold start to the winter, and parts of the River are already frozen now. But under the bridge there was a patch of open water, which on this still, clear and cold day reflected the snow-covered trees on the river banks.
