THIS ice sculpture was discovered by Adrian Graham in his garden in Meltham.

“It appeared in our bird bath after the night time frost,’’ he said.

“Can anyone explain how this 3ins high sculpture was formed? There are no overhanging objects anywhere near the bird bath.”

Salendine Nook meteorologist Paul Stevens explained: “There appears to be a small stem in the middle. I think a small amount of water constantly flows from this.

“The base gradually builds up ice. The water flowing out remains at about 4°C but the outer molecules in contact with the sub zero air freeze.

“This keeps pushing up from the below of the ice and outer molecules grow and continue to freeze.

“The wind has increased and blown steadily from the same direction and whilst remaining sub zero the water below is pushed to one side.

“This builds up faster in this area due to pressure fields built up in the wind flow around the bird table.

“The wind finally falls light again and once again only goes up over.”
