This farm pond at the south end of Aullwood's property is a favorite spot for study or peaceful contemplation. It is surrounded by second growth woods and lined with cattails and willow. Pond weed, irises, algae, duckweed and other vegetation do not over take the pond. From a perch on the study deck vistors can observe smallmouth bass, bluegill and catfish.
Dragonflies abound along with many other insects.
The Spring Pool Spring water keeps this pond cold in summer and ice-free in winter. Leaves from the tall old trees cover the bottom every fall. Chara and other interesting algae grow in the shaded waters. The cold and low light leave the water crystal clear. Isopods and other creatures can be seen slowly crawling over the leafy bounty making their simple livings.
