Ugh - that's frustrating! I ended up with a 22 pound bag of fish food all over my kitchen floor once. They did replace it, and I was still able to use the food that spilled... after sweeping it all up! So it wasn't all bad, but still a mess. Fish food is oily!

If the birds don't eat the food, I bet your local feral cat population will!

well birds are loving my drive way Not sure why they would put so many bags of food in 1 box .Each was 11 lbs .Even the ups driver was pushing food off the floor of his truck out the door onto my driveway .I saw a car stop and just look at the birds up and down my driveway .300 feet of birds was funny

then they must have put out seeds because there was none in the pot with the water hyacinth in the basement over winter and my lily is in the lily pond by it's self.I just noticed them when I added fertilizer to the lily pond

I just wonder where the seeds came from because the lily was never in the same place as the water hyacinth .

I love how the reflection on the clear water looks like the fish are floating through the trees.
You do have such a lovely pond, it looks like it occurred natural, in the forest itself. Between your pond, and @Telion waterfall, my mind is on overdrive with ideas for my own.
