Nice view of the pool with the reeds and water plants.
I’m hoping that when the reeds & water plants grow around the new Wetlands project in the Botanic Gardens near my home, I will be able to get some more rustic natural looking photos like this – sometimes I get bored by the manicured landscaping near me and long for more natural looking scenery like your Marshlands.
It is a lovely pool. The yellow flag iris stalks, long grass and sedges hide quite a few ducks, ducklings and coots. There are often a couple of herons wading here in the early mornings and evenings. The pool stretches deep into the wood, in the distance, in which the swans live.

Yes, Vicki, it’s nice to wander and photographs things in wilder environments.
You can’t post too many views of this pool.

So beautiful! You roam in an enchanted place!
The marsh is a beautiful, enchanting and full of biting insects at the moment. 🙂
I wondered about the biting insects. Water and mosquitoes go hand-in-hand. And I’m sure there are other biters. But it’s still a beautiful place.
