Mostly sunny with some clouds around and no rain in past 24 hours. Swans, Canada Geese, cormorants and seagulls seen on the lake and in the air. Green algae floating on the surface. Spoke with some boaters/fishermen and a jet skier about our Water Rangers testing and gave them some info to follow up on the website if they wish. Comments about the low lake levels this year ....the boater had hit a rock that was usually never an issue before.

Noticed that the summer dock is in place so did just the depth measurement and secchi from the end of the dock, since last time we tested here couldn’t do it from where normally done.

Sunny calm day with a few MM rainfall overnight in the region. Some Canada Geese, seagulls, songbirds and a loon out on the lake today. Summer dock not installed yet so depth measurement taken from the winter pier so won’t be as deep as normally shown when testing from end of the summer dock.

Sky has cleared to become mostly sunny with just some clouds remaining. Group of young people on the pier nearby. Only a few swans out on the lake where I could see them from the end of the dock. Construction on the road nearby has been ongoing since spring/summer.
