Everything is safe. The odour of duck litter.
The water level was low
Special weather:- sudden heavy rainfall followed by sun and thunder. Duck litter in the immediate surroundings. The pond doesn't look good.
Lots of birds are there and because of steady water whatever good or bad stuff inside stays there and affects the chemistry of the water. For instance, birds’ poop and other debris and they decay and smell bad. Also, it increases pH and confits its water. It smelled bad, a lot of geese there, and bird feathers on the water's surface. The odour of decaying vegetation.
Be careful while entering for monitoring because of the slopy path and stones. The entrance path is sloppy and covered with stones. Please be careful while walking there.
