My beautiful watercress in my stock tank bog just emptied half the pond! It blocked the outflow pipe. Will refill a d thin bog tomorrow

@YShahar everything is so pretty at your pond and is that a kookaburra and is he/she sitting in an old gum tree? :happy:
Alas, we don't have kookaburras. That critter is the beautiful, but evil, kingfisher that haunts my pond. I actually got a photo of him (or her) snagging one of the smaller shubunkins that were born in the pond. The photo was too blurry to see much, but it was clear the fish was a shubunkin.

I also got a photo yesterday of a cuckoo bird importuning its adopted (or should I say hoodwinked) parents for food. The parents were hooded crows, and the cuckoo was pretty much full grown. Pretty bird, but sneaky.

Love that lily! Looks purple/lilac.
That one is much smaller than the others, and blooms only very rarely. I'm going to try adding some Osmocote to its container to see if that helps. It's a pretty thing! The regular pink one bloomed a bit even during the winter, though everything was in slow motion.
