A fountain that lacks a continuous water flow soon turns into an interesting biology lesson. I don’t know how long this fountain had been idle, but it was growing quite the crop of algae when I happened upon it with my camera…
In addition to the algae, the standing water was attracting at least one airborne division of mosquitoes. And they were hungry. So, I didn’t linger in the area. Something about not wanting to become one of the four basic food groups for mosquitoes.
