Frozen Chickens

Actually, they seem to be okay but the garden went from this last night:



to what I found this morning:

ps. Nb. slow shutter speed on both those - 20 seconds for the first one!

pps. ... and it's still coming down!

[picnik]

Wow that is A LOT of snow!
Are you sure they are okay??? Ha, ha... I know I wouldn't be

[Angelb]

Poor little things, I hope they have got a thick covering of feathers to keep them warm. I love the second shot.

Poor little souls!
The second pic looks super coooool....

[wulf]

It's warmer out there than yesterday. Their water wasn't completely frozen this morning and it was okay when I checked it again a few minutes ago. Feathers are pretty good insulation and they've got plenty of bedding in the roosting area at the top of the coop.

Superb capture.
I am glad they are fine.

Thats quite a transition you have captured there wulf....what ever happened to global warning

[wulf]

Events like the melting of polar icecaps and the shifting of warm air and sea currents don't necessarily result in everywhere feeling warmer all the time. The concern about global warming is that there are measurable impacts of the increased levels of various gases in the atmosphere, caused by human activity, and there is concern about passing a tipping point where things go really haywire.
