What does your pond look like ... Today?

[j.w]

If that happened, I would scream, poop my pants, then worry I had traumatized the poor rat by screaming in its face. Honestly, I am more worried about running into a copperhead. The terrain out there is perfect camouflage.
Here are some before and after shots of this project:
And that is just one section. There is just so much ivy...

Oh no now we have visions to eradicate from our delicate minds!

You did a marvelous job getting all the ivy out and now it looks like a park w/trees, trails and no snake or rat places for them to hide

Thanks, JW -- that is just about a quarter of it. Much more to go - but I am getting there! A park atmosphere is exactly what I'm going for!

@rubyduby - how beautiful!

 

[rubyduby]

Thank you bagsmom I am sure I will be drooling over all of your ponds once the weather warms up..as you might have noticed I miss the North Country…so many beautiful plants and animals (I miss my chipmunks and red squirrels) in and around ponds as you head North. But I do like having color year round

So an exciting picture of my pond I took the other day. I was happy there were two holes in the ice/ snow. The last few days all the snow melted .. heat wave today of 50!!!

but it’s going to snow tomorrow so back to snow covered! There is a reason I don’t take a lot of pics in the winter!

was 68 yesterday and supposed to be 70 something today , but normal up's and downs for this time of year . Got some branch's trimmed on trees and finished weather striping the doors . Well almost finished had a problem yesterday with a storm door closure spring as the screw stripped out of the metal .Have to cut back grasses with trimmer , late on everything . tulpis and daffodils are up already , geeze is there never any end to this . All this supply chain garbage has really held me up . shelves empty in stores means I have to use more gas to find things and gas went up again

It's all man made sissy , when dipship shut down the pipelines they are saying as of yesterday that we all need to pay more as it's going to save the planet with global warming. what fool buys that tale it's going to fight global warming alright buy buying a jet for the oil executives little girl so she can fly to NY for lunch and go shopping in beverly hills . no one is so dumb to walk the line with what we have been watching listening to and living. it's get in line follow like good little sheep. don't look over there stay in line.
