parts of the Great Lakes with his drone. This time of year often brings the most interesting images.
"Every year, as wind blows across the lake, there's no friction to stop it, so it pushes the sand around," he said. "Then, once it freezes over, the sand locks in place." Water and wind continues pounding into the sand, breaking apart the frozen sections into smaller blocks, giving them the appearance of having just washed onto the shore. It's not the first time they've been spotted.
"I've lived here my whole life and I probably take it for granted," Voytovick said. "Every year, it's a little different. If there are stronger winds, you'd see even crazier sculptures."Last year, a similar set of circumstances gave way to another fascinating site: bizarre sand sculptures that look like they were carved by humans. Instead, it was wind that blew through the sand, eroding away the less-frozen parts. They were discovered at Tescornia Park.
It's no coincidence the slabs showed up the same week temperatures plunged to their coldest this winter. The cold weather blowing from the Arctic and Canada into the Great Lakes plays a role in the slab's formation when temperatures get low enough.
