Ice Keeps Plopping on my Head

It was cold enough today to keep the snow crispy on the ground, but the sun shone brightly enough to make the ice slide off the upper boughs of some trees. I was so bombarded with ice balls this morning as I packed up my car that I thought for sure there were pranksters somewhere up in the trees, laughing their heads off at me and catching it all on tape. I decided to give chase to the warming rays of the sun and managed to catch a few pictures of the ice separating from its resting spot. Isn't it cool how the ice took on the shape of the holly leaf?
