Peaceful pond in busy city

I discovered this pond the other day while on a shopping mission. It's in Lynnwood, Wash., about five miles from my home in Edmonds. From the photo you would think it's in the middle of nowhere. But, actually, Scriber Lake Park is surrounded by a busy city. It looks peaceful here because there's no sound. But it was noisy with cars passing by only a few dozen yards from where I snapped this photo. The ducks were upset that I didn't bring them any snacks. After checking me out they paddled away.
