When we purchase our property the then owner mentioned that the pond (tank) was spring fed. Based on quality of water and the fact that it held water way better than surrounding ponds we had no reason to not believe this to be true.

The other day while dashing through the long grass to try and get a glimpse of what may have been a water moccasin ‘diving’ into water I stumbled onto this spring!

Now not a big one, but definitely a strong steady flow (you can see the flow when I upset the silt) and it is at least 30 degrees cooler than rest of pond water – it feels like water out of the fridge to be honest.
