Notes

Sunny day with some high clouds and winds building up to be moderately strong. No rain in past 24 hours. Pair of ducks flew over and some songbirds heard in the distance. Green algae bloom clusters floating around on the surface of the pond in many places. Beavers keeping the levels up in spite of our recent month with little to no rainfall.
