And here comes the sea ice...

A short stroll down to the wharf at the back of Station this afternoon revealed the sea ice starting to form. I also spied some Adelie penguins through my binoculars, yesterday, just strolling over the ice across the bay. So what just looks like a thin slick of ice from Station is clearly gaining some thickness.
