I also would have gone with white, which is the most reflective.

Also, "Lastly, the protective barrier formed across the surface of the water by the small spheres will help stave off contaminants from birds and other animals."

Does somebody actually think that the balls won't rotate and toss whatever bird poo and dead animals happen to land on them right into the reservoir?

It would end up in the reservoir anyway. Hitting the ball first merely delays it a bit.

This is what happens when liberals use their “brains.”

No.

By darkening the reflective surface of the water they will minimize "visits" by birds and animals. It's the bright reflective surface that attracts them.

...and the birds will probably not be landing / floating / relieving themselves in the water.

Maybe they plan on attaching a fishing weight (NOT lead weights, of course) to one side of each ball...
