Leak?

Good day... long time no post... not much fun during the winter while everything is frozen over!

So I think I have a leak... I lose an inch or so of water every three to four days... could this be normal evaporation? I don't remember the level going down so much last year, so that is why I am thinking 'leak'... I looked extremely hard for it last night and can't find anything...

Any tips or tricks for tracking something like this down? The problem is definitely in the falls... when I turn it off and just use the bubbler the water level remains constant...

Tracking down leaks is really hard.

Last spring we had a lot more rain, that may be the diff here, but then again, it could be a leak.

My falls/stream have driven me nuts on more than one occasion, trying to find a leak that probably didn't exist!

I know this is really no help, but you do have my sympathy!
