Type: Movement
Habitat Description: Snowy Woodland
Natural History Info: As with the other pictures of bodies of water, this thawed, flowing body of water is still moving despite the rest of its surroundings being completely frozen. This is possible because a larger body of water will take more time and require colder temperatures to freeze completely. This contrasts to the surrounding snow that fell from the atmosphere above, as the water/snow particles are quite small as they fall and thus can more easily freeze.
What drew my attention: The waves on this particular body of water were extremely noticeable in person. I tried to capture the motion the best I could in my photograph.
