假设你是李华，你的外国笔友 Tom 想了解湖南的自然风景。请你根据下面的思维导图写一封邮件，向他介绍一处你很喜欢的湖南自然景观 洞庭湖。
注意：
1. 要点齐全，语句通顺，可适当发挥；
2. 文中不得出现真实姓名和校名等信息；
3. 词数 80 左右。

Dear Tom,
I'm glad you are interested in the natural sights of Hunan. Now I'd like to introduce my favorite Dongting Lake to you.
Dongting Lake is located in northern Hunan Province. It is the second largest freshwater lake in China, and it covers an area of about 2,625 km². It is ideal to visit it in spring, and it is also perfect in summer. You can go bird watching there in winter, but you should avoid the flood season in late summer. You can enjoy bird watching and photography, take a boat trip on the lake, and visit the historical Yueyang Tower nearby.
I hope you can come here for a visit one day!
Yours,
Li Hua

3. 写作时要覆盖全部给出的要点，用词符合八年级所学知识范围，语句通顺，词数控制在80左右，不出现真实姓名和校名。
