What is a duck potato? Tubers from Cattails or Pickerel Weed? We used to boil up something like this we dug along the lakeshore. Do not remember if it tasted good.

If you do a satellite view google maps you can see at least 4 of them have been significantly canalled. Remarkably so. One has huge parallel canals. Are these preacadian?
