Notes

Water is notably more clear than previous years. There are zebra mussels littering the bottom in the river, and all over the rocks on the north shore of the lake. There are clumps of very bright green algae floating all over and covering underwater plants. We saw perch, pike, a large snapping turtle, bullfrogs, green frogs, ducks with young, and a cormorant.
