Settling Pond

Suzy and I made a trip over to the park yesterday to look for the Canada goose family. We did find them but they were not close. My lens really didn’t do them justice but am saving the pictures until the beginning of the week. Whiskey Creek is damed up to create water for Blue Eagle Lake, this is the settling pond in front of the dam, The lake was a WPA project during the depression, the level of water is kept constant from water from the pond but the city did install a large well to maintain the quality of water. The settling pond is an ideal location for geese and ducks to raise their hatchlings.
