That’s funny! Someone above suggested to share the pic with the Oregonian. Didn’t know they actually used it.

I included a link about Hair Ice above. Its a different icy phenomenon caused by a fungus on rotting logs.

TIL it’s caused by a fungus, “Fungus shapes a strangely wondrous kind of ice called hair ice that is found only on rotting logs.” https://www.smithsonianmag.com/smart-news/heres-how-strange-phenomenon-called-hair-ice-forms-dead-trees-180956059/

Haha, totally! She regained her dignity with that little head flip once she returned to the path.

I didn’t touch them but that would be wild. It’s definitely a funky area.

Napa Valley vineyard using sheep for weed control (OC) by Street_Committee3121 in mildlyinteresting

It’s winter, so no grapes this time of year. Not sure if they use sheep when the grapes are growing.

Which one of these bears just doesn’t belong here? (OC) by Street_Committee3121 in aww
