Photo found at http://saveourstream.blogspot.com/2010/01/exploring-lake-wingra-in-winter.html and is noted as being Millennium Spring.
The name, as explained in the article: The largest spring in the Edgewood area is called Millennium Spring by Jim Lorman, because it was first noticed about the year 2000. No one knows why it began then, so we tossed around some ideas. A millennium software glitch? The best idea seemed to be that construction of a building nearby had caused a rearrangement in the groundwater flow.
