Much as I dislike the cold, ice storms always find me outside with my camera! Seeing the sspark of life encased so beautifully always entrances us. Very nice shot–congrats on potd.

Oh sweet! Makes me wonder, if ice wrapped around edible berries in this fashion, would it act like a natural preservative :) ?

I notice that certain berries hang on the trees until different parts of the winter; the hawthorn berries always go last. It’s like God always has something in the larder for the wildlife to eat during the cold months.

These look like what’s called dogberries, that make an excellent wine.

They appear to be rose hips. I understand they are higher in vitamin C by weight than any other fruit.
Some wild fruits (grapes here in the north) are really only palatable by humans after they freeze–too puckery before that!
