On Sunday I posted a photograph of Autumn Shadows at Pole Bank.
Today's photograph shows the pond. Although it is currently covered in duckweed it doesn't seem to be bothering the ducks too much. At the last count there were some seventeen mallards loving the water.
The grounds are in part maintained by a volunteer group, Friends of Pole Park - see their facebook page for news.
A photograph of the willow tree can be found on my photoblog sithenah.
Six further photographs and more information can be found on Hyde DP Xtra.
A contribution to ABC Wednesday and Water World Wednesday.
Nice contribution for the letter P. That's great that these grounds are maintained by volunteers and enjoyed by the public...
ReplyDeleteI would have thought of it as algae. I've not heard of duckweed.
ReplyDeleteWe call it algae too but I've never seen it so thick.
