What does your pond look like ... Today?

[Patfish]

I climbed up the waterfall today for a different angle on things. I really enjoy viewing the variety of summer ponds on this thread. Keep those great pics coming. View attachment 102167View attachment 102168 View attachment 102166

I think I know where i am going to fish,CNR of course

You'll need to get passed the attack beagle first (anything edible will suffice).

Is that trout?

Yes - that's a female Kamloops rainbow trout, somewhere over five pounds. She's become a pet.

Considering the extended heat pattern, my pond is holding up well. A few top offs but that's about it, I'll need to dredge the fallen rose petals and other leaves the have fallen soon. I haven't been feeding as much this year as I have in the past, they'll be ok. Finally had a few dragon flies show up, that's always interesting.

My poor neglected pond.

Do I dare ask ...... how many fish do you have now?

I like that pink water lily. My lily pads don't get nearly as big.

They were that big.............darn deer. I still have not had time to repot the lilies, I did see one flower and a few new leafs coming up. I have not fertilized it in years. It is in one of the small ponds that gets dirty water from the big pond.

Don't ask.... I can't count that high, (not enough fingers and toes)

My pond had a visitor, almost thought we would need to run out and save the little boy. He went down to snack on the lilies, got his cute little head caught in the net. Mom had him laying in our yard.

@addy1 I hear Missy likes him also. Ahhhhhhhhhh he's so sweet! He's sampling a little bit of everything new even your rock. Did you see the mom?

 

[tbendl]

So adorable! I'm glad he didn't get stuck.

Ah! An adorable, soft, furry, weapon of mass destruction! haha! They are sweet to see, aren't they? My Facebook is filled with posts of people finding "abandoned" fawns and all the "call animal control" comments. People - that's how it works! Leave them alone and mom will be back!

Did not see the mom, but it was laying there until around 730, then you could see its ears perk up, he jumped up and walked the edge of the pond towards the apple trees.
