Tuesday Treat: Water World

Posted on May 18, 2021 by crispina kemp

Our walk on 3rd May meandered through Bure Park where there’s a *pond* (too small to call it a lake).

Hope you enjoyed the birds. I was delighted, these aren’t tame birds, and to get the swan on the nest, fantastic

    Thanks for the joyful water fowl of your area … and introducing me to the Pochards.

    “Lake versus pond.” I knew Massachusetts had a law about this, but it wasn’t what I thought. The legal category is “great pond,” a body of water 10 acres or more in size, which is thereby open to the public. It is said to derive from English common law.
