Perspectives on Mud Season Spring brings mud season to New England. There's a secret side to mud season that most folks probably don't experience. It happens after cold nights temporarily re-freeze water saturated mud, creating complex and beautiful crystalline structures. The tops of puddles freeze to a highly reflective sheen, impromptu streams are in daily flux between solid and liquid, and a few adventurous plants put forth early blossoms. We haven't reached the full orchestral version of spring yet, just the piccolos and flutes warming up in the pit. View of ice crystals from above
