Small, peaceful pond and marsh on Mercer Island offering mirror reflections, waterfowl, seasonal reeds and tree-lined shores — ideal for intimate waterscape and nature shots. Best at sunrise or late golden hour for warm light and calm water; winter and spring bring migrating birds and dramatic skies. Easy public access with nearby street parking and short trails; no entry fee. Weekday mornings are quiet; expect brief walks on uneven boardwalks and paths.
