The lake is over 6,500 acres (26 km²) in size, 21 mi (34 km) in circumference, and has an average depth of 8 feet (2 m). The lake is 2,100 acres (8.7 km²) larger than Lake Washington, 27 mi (43 km) north of this lake. The lake's name comes from the blue appearance of the cypress trees as the morning sun's rays reflect off the water. A fishing camp called Blue Cypress Lakeside Cabins is 4 mi (6 km) off State Road 60. The Blue Cypress Village (about 70 units) is south of the small boat canal from the fish camp.

Lady bird [3.3K]
Each organelle, in a cell, works with all of the other organelles to maintain balance, or homeostasis. The organelles have specific functions such as the mitochondria, which create energy, and the ribosome, which translates RNA into proteins.
