Hello.
It is not good to have trees near the pond, but 100feet should be OK.
I have Vernal-pool Wetlands in my woodland about 100feet from my pond.
Those humid media that act like giant sponge, absorbing rainwater and letting the water slowly evaporate.
Wouldn't that be good way to moderate the effects of drought on our pond. And keeping the water table high.
For those who can have a little wood.
A+
