118. What makes a lake a lake?

from The No Sweat Nature Study Podcast Hosted by Cindy West

You can see a lake's waves and shoreline, but the land beneath the water holds the key to understanding it. Listen in to learn how a lake fills and changes, why its water can move without making it a river, and why the line between a lake and a pond gets surprisingly fuzzy. Keep learning in the Great Lakes video class, where we'll map all five lakes and follow the water between them. 🎥 Try a No Sweat Nature Study class for FREE! 🎓 Charter & Scholarship Options 🎙️ Leave Mrs. Cindy a voice message!
