Hoarfrost and Winter BIrds
I love watching the birds at my feeder, especially the Cardinals! They are so colorful against the white snow. Picture worthy! We had hoarfrost all over the trees today. I had to look the definition up to make sure I was right about Hoarfrost! Here is the definition for you. — Hoarfrost , deposit of ice crystals on objects exposed to the free air, such as grass blades, tree branches, or leaves. It is formed by direct condensation of water vapour to ice at temperatures below freezing and occurs when air is brought to its frost point by cooling. ~Pretty cool!! And that is the Science lesson for today~
