Tea Lake
ooh October, Severodvinsk, Arkhangelsk region, Russia
Description:
The lake is almost 300 meters long and 105 meters wide. Around the lake are Oktyabrskaya Street, Primorsky Boulevard and Butoma Avenue.
Despite the fact that the lake is located next to the sea and has a small size, there are only freshwater organisms (daphnia, infusoria-shoe), as the water in the lake is fresh. In winter, the lake covers ice. In warm times, except for gulls, ducks flock to the lake, in order to reproduce. During the perestroika, when hunger and poverty flourished on the streets, the duck population declined sharply, due to the fact that they were simply eaten. But recently, local residents are restoring the population by intensively feeding ducks with bread. In the thickets of reeds, if you are lucky, you can see otters, which are also found on the lake.
