Hi Author, I live in a place where we don't see anything like this, in the middle of winter we might get a thin layer of ice on the water troughs. I just.... can you please explain ... the top layer of ice, it looks like it is around 30 cm or so above the lower layer. It's a great shot, I'm just scratching my head.

Thank you Madamemonty for comment and question. Well, I am not an expert, but all I can say: This happens sometimes in Springtime in the Arctic North (btw, I only work there but not live). it is a very small lake along the road. The snow started to melt during the day under the bushes created some stream and during the night it got frozen again.
You can see some more photos of this phenomenon under this image in SBS. (End of May 2014). Thank you
Howdie stranger!
