Song Lake
- Our Song Lake Watershed
- Preble, New York
- Song Lake is one of a group of unique kettle lakes, just east of the Finger Lakes, in Northern Cortland and Southern Onondaga Counties, in New York State. The kettle lakes were formed during the same glacial period as the Finger Lakes, and according to the USGS, by the same glacial processes that also formed the Valley Heads Moraine, which is the drainage divide between the St. Lawence River Basin to the north and Susquenanna River Basin, to the south. Song has no outlet or inlet, but is fed by precipitation, surface water runoff and groundwater.
