Keen but inexperienced!
The pond is a sort of a run-off, from a larger fishing pond (roach, chub, carp etc) to the stream which eventually flows into the river Brid and then to the sea... but the pond is becoming filled with reeds and before long, they'll meet in the middle, it'll silt up, and that will be that. The pond teems with wildlife - frogs, newts, sticklebacks, water scorpions, diving beetles, eels, dragonflies, etc etc... I really think I should start cutting away some plants from the bank and pulling some reeds - but I don't really want to murder anything.. Should I wait, or do it now?
