By increasing the camera lense to 500mm, you can just bearly make out a couple of ducks in one small open area of the pond that has not been taken over by the lotus and willows. Beyond the ducks is the photographic blind that is used during Wintering time. To be productive it will need the wild plants reduced so wildlife observations can be documented. Hopefully these areas will be made ready for a large population of waterfowl to arrive and stay for the entire Wintering period.
