Agree warm at moment birds are looking to nest mate. Lots of birds around at the moment. And plants starting to show growth. Could be in for a shock if this snow comes
Spotted some deer in the woods today.
Saw them shortly after this crossing the path, was 4 of them.

I think they only stay close to the surface or edge of the pond when they are young. As they get older they go deeper to avoid predators. Eventualy they leave the pond and live most of there lives out of water, returning to the pond to mate in early Spring (Or January in my experience this year).
For more info, ask Chris Peckham or David Attenburger.
