Icy Pterodactyl


Another storm swept through the area this evening, 
coating everything with a mixture of snow, 
sleet, and ice. The ice frozen on a neighborhood 
shrub looks like some weird version of a pterodactyl. 
Rising from the snow to soar in the winter sky,
the long-gone dinosaur might also be the mythical 
phoenix, this time reborn from winter 
to bring us spring.

The ice really does make some unusual shapes!

Yep, and this time it looked to me as if it were a dinosaur bird. Even had a little crest made up from leaf nodes - or whatever those little attaching things are called.
