Backyard Walter Clouds

There were beautiful Walter clouds in our backyard this morning. They're actually cirrocumulus clouds, but I've always called them Walter clouds (named for Walter Iooss, since they seemed to magically appear whenever he had a shoot). Cirrocumulus clouds are composed primarily of water droplets & are located between 6,500 & 20,000 ft above the ground. They're beautiful!
