Ice formations hang on trees at the Unteres Odertal national park near Schwedt, Northeastern Germany, February 15, 2012.
I found this at a weather station when I was looking up the local weather (which I almost never have to do).
ZenGum Saturday Dec 22 05:55 PMWTF? How did that form??
Is there some kind of metal disc around the tree (such as are used here to stop possums climbing them) that has had the near-freezing water condense on it, then trickle down to form the skirt?
Or does some weirdo have a fetish for trees in ice tutus?

ZenGum Saturday Dec 22 11:50 PMAhh, yeah, I get it. Freaky.
