Question Ultra-light over the lake ?

Perhaps someone should tell the guy in the ultra-light. I wondered if his flying was FAA legal or not. Only rule I could recall was not doing "acrobatics" above a "populated" area. I wasn't sure if above the lake proper was considered "populated". He doesn't bother me (got semi-buzzed once) but these days surely someone will report him and get his liscense pulled.
