This is the same area as the very fist picture here.
After clearing the brush, I took out a large tree with the backhoe. After moving the tree to the burn pile with the dozer, this hole filled up with water. It was fairly fast, but I didn't see it happen.
The water level has been at this height for several months until the rains the other day, now it's flowing over very slowly.
The water level is two feet below my shoreline and I'm thinking this is a keeper spring to help fill and maintain the lake. I really don't want to plug this one!!!
My thinking is that the drought has lowered the water level and amount of water for the sping to this level. But when the rains get back to normal, the water level will rise, and at the very worse, it should provide water to fill the lake up to it's current level.
