Here's the pond today. I was doing some pond work earlier. I added a long pot, which you can see on the right.

While I was busy doing that, the ducks were patiently waiting across the driveway.

The bog is starting to grow. Blue Flag Iris, Marsh Marigold, and some moss.

Hi everyone,

I've gone through every page of this post and I must say you all have some really nice ponds! I figured I would join the club and show mine off too...

In keeping with the theme, here's my pond today.

It's almost time to move the fish outside, but they're currently still in their winter condo

We had our first toad egg dump last night, they were out singing while I was down there working. This is a small pond, warm slow flowing I let the algae do what it wants, the critters love it.

This is my turtle escape ramp from the lotus tub, the frogs and toads love it too.
