Description
Photo of male and female Northern Cardinals on fence with icicles. Additional texture by FAA Artist, Jai Johnson, called, DT-Winter Collection 2-4, was added using Corel Paintshop's techniques of brushes and blending background. Light snow texture was added as a final touch.

Icicles can form during bright, sunny, but subfreezing weather, when ice or snow melted by sunlight or some other heat source (such as a poorly insulated building), refreezes as it drips off under exposed conditions. Over time continued water runoff will cause the icicle to grow. Another set of conditions is during ice storms, when rain falling in air slightly below freezing slowly accumulates as numerous small icicles hanging from twigs, leaves, wires, etc. Thirdly, icicles can form where ever water seeps out of or drips off vertical surfaces such as road cuts or cliffs.
