A body of water completely surrounded by land

A body of water completely surrounded by land would be a lake. Lake's are usually fed by undergeound springs. Quarry's are also an example, although they are man made, after the excavations hit a spring underground.[http://wiki.answers.com/help/answering_questions

A large body of water with land all around it is called a lake. Lakes are inland bodies of water that are surrounded by land on all sides. Examples include the Great Lakes in North America and Lake Baikal in Russia.

It is a lake. Some lakes are called seas, although they are not seas. A sea is an extension of the ocean into the land, and may be connected by an estuary. The deciding factor is the presence or exchange of seawater.

Smaller bodies of water are called ponds.
