What does your pond look like ... Today?

yep been a hard start to the year CE .Hoping this will be over soon and that every one comes through it OK .I got the chance to call a friend in Ohio yesterday and him and his son are doing good so far .Glad you are back CE and OK .Every time I posted on your weather post I thought of you and wondered where and how you were .We need sanity in this world we live in right now .I just hope every day that the sun shines down and warms the world up

Excited to see my bog bean producing buds. Can't wait to see it bloom!

Here's a bunch of frogs enjoying the warm weather.

The bog bean blooms are amazing! So small & dainty, but lovely & appreciated. Enjoy yours!



And, yes, the frogs have been out in force!!

my cats caught 2 frogs last night in the lily pond ,so they had frog legs I guess as a snack .Severe storm around 4 am and pond is full again .Been getting a lot of evaporation with the winds and heat .Caught a baby fish in the lily pond

Bog greening up quickly

I went down to get something in the basement and noticed a lily flower bud just below the water surface .Also have 1 hummingbird at the feeder

It is way to early for this but it may be an amazing summer if we do not get any real bad storms .The storm before daybreak was bad wind ,rain ,thunder and the flash's were something to see .But this wind is gusting from 40 to 50 MPH .

I had gotten a bog bean from someone years ago but never saw it bloom. I think it got swallowed up by the irises.
I talked to the pond expert guy today. Got some really exciting ideas from him. It will be June before my pond will be started so that’s going to be a long wait but the new owner of my house in IL is happy to take care of the fish until I can transport them to the new pond.
And those frog photos are amazing, JB!

By the time your pond is ready I will be grooming back bog bean, if you want some tell me then.

Spring in Ohio

Just saw two different weather models... we are expecting either .6 inches of snow or 8.6 inches of snow, depending on who you believe. For the first time in a long time, it really doesn't matter to me one way or the other! We'll see who nailed this one!
