we have an existing pond that will be enlarged this year. we've
witnessed herons and falcons plucking goldfish from our pond (one brave
falcon actually ate a goldfish on our deck leaving the skeletal remains
for us to clean!)

what's the preferred way to keep our (soon to be) koi fish safe from
predatory birds.. new pond will vary in depth from 1 to 4 ft.
========================
Bird netting works for us. It also keeps out all the other predators we
have here.
