Default Pond Evaporation

We get that as well, I am in Ontario, not to cold right now, just enough to
freeze the top layer but yes it seems that the water shrinks when it freezes
and then when it melts it fills back up.
I have seen our water level go down 2 inches when it is really frozen!

My pond is about 700 gallons.

Hi Carole,
We've been having quite a bit of rainfall, but the winds
we've been having could account for the loss of water. Try
topping off the pond and keep a close watch.
