Adam Cousens Jr., 5, of Norwich slowly follows a duck in the water at Gardner Lake in Salem, Tuesday, Aug. 30, 2016. Adam's father, Adam Cousens Sr., said the family was at the pond getting in some swimming before school begins Wednesday. Cousens also said that he has been trying to teach his son how to swim, but he is more interested in the birds on the lake than learning to swim. (Dana Jensen/The Day)
