Sunny clear day with no rain in past 24 hours. Lots of water flowing now over the falls and into the river feeding the millpond. Some songbirds heard but none of the usual geese and swans on the pond at this time. Few days ago we saw a family of 4 otters swimming along near the bridge here.

Prince Edward Point by Don Ross
Sunny calm day with a few thin clouds in the sky and less than 1 MM rain in past 24 hrs. Some birds in the trees. Haven’t tested here for a while because most times these ledges have water on them so can’t get out easily to the test site where the ledge drops into the lake. This year has been so dry and the lake is out so low that it’s accessible again.

Long Point Harbour by Don Ross
Sunny, calm day with just a few thin cirrus clouds and less than 1 Mm rainfall in past 24 hrs. Some Canada Geese and seagulls in the water ( where there is enough ) and a green frog hopped in along the shore. The harbour is showing its muddy bottom almost everywhere now, with green algae too. Never seen this harbour as low as this before!
