Help big problem with spots on my rock

I'm not a super experienced ponder, so I'm just guessing. But it seems like this is probably just a life form like algae and likely not a problem. I have all kinds strange things in my pond. But I am sure other folks will chime in!

Hello and welcome!
Not sure but it looks like normal pond stuff.

Welcome,
I don't see a big problem in any way. The black spots would be algae or bacterial colonies either way your water is clear you don't have string algea. The lack of algae could be a sign something is out of whack but for now i would just keep an eye on the pond.

What to do next? Grab your favorite beverage and enjoy some time relaxing by your pond. It's fine.
