Down the street at the community centre, there is a little pond. We walked down to visit it twice this week to see what we could see and to think a little bit more about the role of plants within ecosystems.
The students were excited to see both dragonflies and damselflies, see water striders and water beetles of some sort as well as some beautiful blooming water lilies.
We haven't had rain for awhile so the water level in the pond was low but we'll go back again next week to see what we can see. I've seen ducks in this pond before and I've heard herons and raccoons visit as well.
