Inokashira Benten Pond Being Dried

This weekend, the pond around the Benten Shrine of Inokashira Park was being dried up.  The organizer did a larger scale one with the main part of the pond about two years ago.  I reported about it in this blog.

The Shrine and the walking bridge of the pond - can see water level is low.

Looking at the pond from the bridge to the middle island to the east.

A heron likes the reduced water level.

Hoses to pump the water out.

Water being pumped out to the main pond.

There was a booth to explain about the caught fish.

Types of fish caught at the pond - blue are foreign fish.

Beautiful colors are around the park at this season of the year.
