>A strange and beautiful sight greeted locals in the Gulf of Ob, in northwest Siberia, after thousands of natural snowballs formed on the beach.
>An 11-mile (18km) stretch of coast was covered in the icy spheres.
>The sculptural shapes range from the size of a tennis ball to almost 1m (3ft) across.
>They result from a rare environmental process where small pieces of ice form, are rolled by wind and water, and end up as giant snowballs.
>Locals in the village of Nyda, which lies on the Yamal Peninsula just above the Arctic Circle, say they have never seen anything to compare to them.
