It doesn’t get any more apt than this: A photographer from the Newfoundland town of Dildo has captured images of a penis-shaped iceberg off the Canadian coast.

The suggestive ‘berg consists of a column with a domed head protruding up from two oval rafts of ice. Photographer Ken Pretty captured a shot of the ice formation by drone near the town of Harbour Grace, which sits along — the puns keep adding up — Conception Bay.

Perhaps unsurprisingly, the “dickie berg,” as locals are calling it, has attracted international attention, with Pretty sharing news stories from as far away as Thailand and Taiwan on his Facebook page.

“I knew I’d get a lot of comments, but I didn’t expect this much,” Pretty told the news agency Saltwire(opens in new tab) on Friday (April 28).

Alas, the iceberg lacked staying power: Pretty photographed the 30-foot (9.1 meter) phallic structure on Thursday, April 27. It collapsed the next day.

According to the CBC(opens in new tab), it’s a strong iceberg season in Newfoundland and Labrador, with more than 200 off the coasts of the two provinces.

“Onshore winds brought in both the pack ice and the bergs,” Diane Davis, who runs a Facebook group for iceberg hunters, told the CBC. “If the trend holds up, we should see them for May and June, too. Mother Nature only gave us a handful last year.”
