The Alien views of Putka river
Here is an example of interesting riverbed manifestations on the very small Putka River in the Osanovskaya grove. The water washed away the ice and snow and created alien species.

At first, I was afraid to get close, as there is usually a small swampy lake here in the snowless season.

But this time it was like a huge plate of thick ice.

And only the narrow channel made by the Putka indicated the place of the river flow.

As I got closer, I, fearing the water, first checked the safety of my location, and only then began to take pictures.

The depth in the riverbed did not exceed half a meter, and the thickness of the ice was very close to the same value.

It is a pity that only in one place there were such manifestations of the riverbed.

In other places on the Putka River, there were ordinary banks and familiar-looking landscapes.

In some places, the river was completely hidden under the ice.
