QuoteEden, NY (WGRZ) -- A mystery of sorts has unfolded in Peggy Gervase's back yard.
As she looked out from the deck of her home on Friday, Peggy spotted what appeared to be a series of concentric circles that had opened in the snow covering a nearby pond. It almost resembled the unusual phenomena known as crop circles. But again, this occurred on the surface of a pond.
Take a look at the vid/photos. This is a weird one.
"Pond" circles form over frozen pond (http://www.wtsp.com/news/watercooler/article/306943/58/Pond-circles-form-over-frozen-pond)
Possibly methane being released due to decomposing plant material in the water.I have seen this under the right conditions.
A very thin layer of ice and a light snow.
Or the sleeping fish down there are farting.
