Dragonflies are natures Mosquito Magnetic
Just as I left the house this morning the weather was on the muggy side and living next to the water mosquito's just love moist weather. Opening my shed door getting ready to some outdoor choirs I noticed Dragonflies everywhere. What a relief, the dragonflies favorite food is the dreaded Mosquito, these eating machines can eat their own weight in bugs in less than 30 minutes. The adult dragonfly likes to eat gnats, mayflies, flies, mosquitoes and other small flying insects. They sometimes eat butterflies, moths and bees too. I can tell you they are a welcome site at our home as we live next to a giant beaver pond and the dragon flies are out in hot pursuit of their favorite quarry the mosquito. Currently in my yard I could count up to 100 or more dragon flies protecting our civil liberties to enjoy a summer day without being harassed by mosquitoes. Our beaver pond is the perfect breeding ground for mosquitoes and dragonflies.

What is the Water Quality of the local lakes. Simple if you know the classification for the lake, you can quickly determine water clarity, bottom structure and if weeds are abundant. The classification often also are related to fishing, water color and summer beach closures.
What is an Oligotrophic Lake?
An Eagle Sitting on the Bank of a Mesotrophic Lake in NH
An oligotrophic lake is a lake with low nutrient content. These lakes have low algal production and consequently have very clear waters, sandy or rocky bottoms. The waters of such lakes typically have ample oxygen supporting many fish species, like salmon or trout which require cold, well-oxygenated waters. Normally no beach closures on these lakes and ponds.
Mesotrophic Lakes?
Mesotrophic lakes have an intermediate level of algal productivity. These lakes commonly have clear water, sandy, rocky or hardpan bottoms or with beds of submerged aquatic plants. There is a medium level of nutrients and aquatic plants possible along the shallow shorelines. Occasional beach closures.
Eutrophic Lakes?
A eutrophic body of water can be a lake or pond and has high biological productivity. Due to excessive nutrients, especially nitrogen and phosphorus, these water bodies are able to support an abundance of aquatic plants. Usually the water body will be dominated either by aquatic plants or algae. The algae engages in photosynthesis which supplies oxygen to the fish and biota which inhabit these waters. Occasionally an excessive algae bloom will occur and can ultimately result in fish kills and are not safe for any water activities. The process of eutrophication can occur naturally and by human impact on the environment. These lakes will be impacted by hot summer months and frequent Beach Closures!
During the summer the NH Department of Environmental Sciences will test our beaches and if high bacteria counts are found will close them to the public. One of the determining factors is the nutrient content in the water that enables algae production to dangerous levels. Visit the NH website for updates on your favorite beaches condition. http://www2.des.state.nh.us/WaterShed_BeachMaps/WaterShed_BeachMaps.aspx
