THE POND AT KILKENNY CASTLEYET ANOTHER EXAMPLE OF ENVIRONMENTAL ISSUES

TThis visit I noticed that the water was covered with a carpet of green and when I examined my photographs from 2021 it was much the same. After some research I discovered that there is an environmental problem as an invasive species of plant is hindering efforts to maintain the duck pond in Kilkenny’s Castle Park.
