Freezing temperatures have been recorded across Victoria in recent weeks as some regions across the state begin to get a glimpse of warmer, spring-like weather.
Western district grazier Margaret Hallyburton, Boiardo, Bookaar, said sub-zero temperatures at her property had even frozen a bird bath, allowing her to place four sets of boots on the ice.
"I have no idea how cold it was that morning," she said.
"The gauge under the verandah said 0 (and) Mortlake was into the minus range that morning."
