It looks like a deer took a stroll on the top of my pond recently.

The main spring in the pond must be running pretty good. It's located about 12 feet below the surface. Even with sub zero temps, it's been keeping a sizeable hole open in the ice. The warmer spring water will help keep the fish warm.

Starting to melt but still a bit of ice. Fish look like frozen statues under the water.

That plant is Variegated Sedge w/snow squashing it down. I trim down all the dead iris plants in late Fall.

Today.... Very Bottom pond, bad Bear walking on the ice cap as usual, I can see water moving from hole down there so everything fine. Second pond from bottom is half open, upper two connecting ponds That are covered with cattle panel cold frames are ice free.
Going to switch to smaller 1200 watt heater today as 1500 watt just not needed as no ice on upper connecting ponds and very large opening in second connecting pond from bottom.

The pond still has ice, but I can't remember it ever being this thawed in January.
