Hermiony, the bean bag frog's, adventures in McMurdo, by Leigh Stearns

Due to air temperature contrasts at the ice surface and above the ice surface, we get these cool mirages everynow and then. The ridge in the distance is really low..it is about half the height it appears to be. If there were icebergs around, it would look like they were floating above the surface of the water!
