This was a forest until 2 month ago. Now the anthill is what remains of it. Can´t help but wonder what the ants will think when they wake up next spring. Will they survive? They are a forest species.

This is one of our ponds where there usually are rather many birds. It is devided in two by the road. 
The water is very low. More then 50 cm lower then normal. The swan whould not be able to stand at that location. And the green grass area should be under water enough to allow ducks and grebes to dive.
