Many boats out on the water already, parking lot is quite full! Vegetation around the lake edge is very lush.
Lots of canoes and kayaks on the river this morning!
Quiet morning, slight breeze. Single motorized boat on the water. Lots of goose droppings by the lake. Sampling location is a popular watering spot for dogs apparently. 2 more boats launched while sampling.
Very busy day at the park, many people out enjoying the water and on shore. Will get into the habit of sampling Sunday morning, when less busy.
Sample was collected approximately 1m from shoreline (riff raff shoreline) with plenty of algae present. Macrophytes were also present.
