I am not sure if you can see the icicles hanging on this tree in the photo. As I walked the dog around the block yesterday, I noticed these icicles on this boxelder tree (member of the maple tree family). There are about 9 icicles hanging off the tips of various branches. Each branch that is tipped with an icicle was broken or trimmed. The sap has been running with the warmer weather and must have dripped out the end of these branches and froze, forming icicles. That is why I called them sapcicles.
