Paul,

I don't know about turtles, but the frogs & toads will find you! The surest
sign that it is really spring here in NC is when I hear the toads calling
from the edge of the pond (they don't spend much time actually in the pond,
but some of them seem quite happy in the "singles bar").

I try to make sure that there is always some way for the critters to get
out, too! Frogs are great jumpers, but toads, well........... I put bricks
on the plant shelves, so that even the "littlest lover boy toad" can get out
of the pond.

I am interested in adding some critters to my pond to add some additional
interest. I have koi and I like them but I would like some other
interesting critters as well. Frogs are an obvious choice but I am
interested in knowing what other critters I can add that are not harmful
plus will stay around.
I live in Oklahoma. Pond is large enough with waterfall that it does not
freeze over.
Turtles (small) - any problem? Where do I get the "right" kind?
Any suggestions or definite no-no's.
Paul
