Notes

Dense vegetation along dock including sago, Eurasian milfoil, coontail, elodea, richardsons pondweed, White fragrant pondlilies, and frogbit.
Young of year largemouth bass could be spotted swimming near the surface beside the dock, and other fish found here included logperch, pumpkinseed sunfish, round gobies, and yellow perch.
Birds seen included a great blue heron, and a pair of mute swans foraging and preening.
Leopard frogs were also very common.
Found dead grass carp, and dead walleyes, along with a clutch of grackles that seem to have fallen from their nest and succumbed to the elements.
