Amazing thing yesterday afternoon: the ice out on the Lake started drifting toward shore and then breaking up in the waves. For about 15 minutes, you could hear the big chunky cubes of ice rolling into shore and piling up against the rocks. And at the same time....
The ice that remained out on the Lake was the temporary perch of hundreds of seagulls, congregating out on the ice, taking a rest and enjoying the warming weather before all the ice melted. That the two conditions existed at the same time was weird. The shoreline was loud and violent, and the ice islands, just a few yards away, were peaceful oases. Amazing.
