The Department of the Interior shared an eerily beautiful photo on Twitter Friday showing a school of dead fish that appear to be suspended in the air inside a wall of ice. The image makes it look as if they were frozen, mid-leap out of the water, maybe by some unhinged snow queen. She gave the backstory to the Fish and Wildlife Service National Wildlife Refuge System, which shared the photo on its Facebook page last month. Preheim said the thousands of frozen fish on the lake drew “hundreds of bald eagles, various gulls and American crows,” who swooped in for the convenient feast. Preheim posted a couple more awesome images on her blog showing what happened ― including an eagle standing on a huge swath of frozen fish.
