I think in the last month we have had 3 seasons summer 90 degree days and dry then spring has come with lots of rain and 70 degree days and now fall with 60 degrees .Me thinks mother nature is senile ..I just spent hours putting all of my pics on another hard drive to send to my oldest son so he has them .I scanned and copied pics of all the family pics I have also

JB the frog close up is amazing. I can never get close enough to them to get a picture.

I've had that issue the last couple of years so this year I replanted my lilies with larger "river rock" type stones. Fish can't seem to move them around now....lol

That is exactly what I was thinking about when I saw all the stone on the bottom!

For me it was especially ugly. I was using old aquarium gravel and pea gravel of several different colors for over the years. I had to net that stuff up weekly it seemed.

Split my Scirpus Cernuus plant into smaller plants. Now I have two of them in my pond.

My largest Bullfrog doesn't get scared too easily, the other two smaller ones do. I make slow movements around them and as the summer progresses you can tell they trust more and more. The nice zoom on my camera also helps!

Your bog turned out so well! I am quite smitten with the pretty, pink rocks y'all have out there.

That back yard has really come a looooooooong way! Outstanding. Love the addition of the semi-mature tree.

Thanks! "semi-mature" tree? the Willow?

I planted that in 2011 it was just too small in older pictures to see it. It was 4' tall twig when I planted it. Has grown like a weed though Which is good since our yard was desperately lacking in shade.

 

[rodsboys]

Wow, I thought you planted it already that size. lol
