Pond


Question: what's growing in the pond? There seem to be a lot of little leaves as well as the bigger water lily leaves, so I took the canoe out to investigate. This fellow came with me.

As it turned out, I think it's all small round water lily leaves. I'm not sure why some are fully formed or even blooming, while others are little and round. A lot of them had disease of various sorts, speckles and such.

Great fun being out on the water, although I had to back into the wind most of the way back, which was flowing steadily from the south and would push my nose around too much if I faced it.
