This gathering was made on 27th June. The pond is a shallow 
one— the average depth is about 8 feet, and the bottom consists of 
soft black mud. It is to a large extent overgrown with Equisrtum 
li musum , amongst which the coot and the black-headed gull nest. 
It gives origin to a small stream which runs close to the village, 
and was until recently used more or less for domestic purposes. 
The only fish-life obtained was the three-spinod stickleback.
