What neato pictures, Theo. I think the little black doggie is
just precious, but I still favor the inscrutability of the cat!
Your pond sounds wonderful ... You were able to enjoy it
for a longer period of time this past winter.
Mine is open ... At least everything is up and
running, fish look healthy, etc . etc. Now I have to get out
there and start weeding around the pond.

Glad to see your back.

It had to happen.... after having 5 cats, 40 odd fish, 3 turtles...

got the better of me, and we went to the dogs.

Our newest watergarden addition can be seen he

She (12 weeks old), named Patsy (one of our cats was already called Edina)
fell into the turtle pond after only 6 days LOL.

Hi again to the regulars BTW. My pond is doing very well, pond has never
been so clean both mechanically and biologically, and yet I've never seen
string algae this long (over 4 ft ), but the fish are thriving and
growing like mad (pond was heated all winter, now 14°C).

The dog so far is only interested in the pellets that I drop when feeding
the fish.

She also has the habit of posing like a football hooligan

Have fun, hope your ponds are well after this winter.
