Day # 11 Frozen In

It had been a very cold night, minus 18 celcius, and it's very windy.
Wellington Harbour outlet is frozen over, and the swans seem to be frozen into the ice flows.
The pans of ice are moving slowly back and forth in the harbour,
and a couple of the swans look to be almost free now.
On the other side of the dock are over 1000 Canadian Geese in the same predicament but it's morning, the camera looking into a wan sun, so the picture isn't any good.

Coming back into Wellington later that afternoon the geese fly over the car to their favourite corn fields north of the village, but the fields are snow covered so hunting will cost them extra energy.

My energy is flagging, too, but that's because of a shortage of sunlight.
February usually brings lots of sun, happily.
Not long now.
