We call these little weeds hitchhikers because when you are walking through the woods they stick to your socks and clothes and dogs and are a general nuisance to pull off. But they were beautiful (and harmless) encased in ice.

I never heard them called that before - but then I can't think what we call them here at all. Nice idea, hitchhikers hitching a ride inside the ice! I'm enjoying your ice series a lot.

Thanks to all my friends for the wonderful images I get to look at and learn from on Caedes every day. I always have something to say about them, but don't always have the time to record it. Please forgive me if I can't comment on all of your uploads.
An apt title Hilda
I still can't believe it's so cold already :o( even my local duck pond has a partial sheet of ice !! We could be in for a severe winter. :o(
Nice photograph I'm surprised the hitchhikers still standing. :o)

Are those burdocks? Hichhikers is a very describing name, I like it :-). What a wonderful winter picture this is. Love the icicles.

How well I remember hitchhikers! They used to get stuck in our horses' manes and tails and forelocks and were a real pain to get out. I love that lonnnnng icicle. Looks to me like it formed overnight, enjoyed a mini-thaw...to the point of forming a drop at the end, and then fell under another freeze. Nice winter shot of an unusual subject. Thanks!

Good one my friend. They like horse manes too.
They look better encased in ice! No prick no stick.

Nature in all her glory is my uplift on life.
Encased in this ice, they appear so harmless, but in warmer times, they're such a pain!! Love how you captured them in the frozen moment of time.

"I never looked for it, gave it no name; yet I knew it always, when the gift of peace came. I stood quite still for the moment that it lasted...Then the light shifted slightly and the moment passed, leaving me...with the lasting echo of its presence.." Diana Gabaldon
Well Hilda many times I have walked through the bush and when I came out spent time taking these off my body...sometimes hours later:))...they look very nice encased in this ice...gerry
