What happens to fish under ice? Interesting question. They sort of go into hibernation and move slower. Sea is never totally frozen and there is always oxygen under the ice. In lakes and ponds the fish have harder times but they survive. No problemo for fauna. Besides, with these warm winters there won´t be much ice on sea or lakes anyway. That can actually be worse for fish and fauna that is used for ice.
This diary is kept by hobby photographers situated in southern Finland. Most pictures are "straight from cam" except for occasional cropping.

I meant fish and fauna is waiting for ice but ice doesn´t come.
