What is the current status of your pond?
Ottawa: 3-ft. diameter hole around the bubbler, rest frozen over and
snow-covered. Lots of squirrel prints in the snow -- my wife saw one
almost break through the other day, while getting a drink. Occasionally
see a fish, though they seem to prefer to remain under the ice (I think
they don't like the bubbler).
Taros doing well indoors, in buckets under a grow-light.

The screens have 4" of snow on them, but with my wireless thermometer I can
see that the water is liquid, I can also "hear" the water moving... but
that requires going "outside".... like brrrrr!
I haven't even gone up and looked at the lily pond, maybe I'll do that
today. I'm hoping the fact I floated milk jugs on it that they are holding
the shade cloth off the surface of the water. ~ jan
