Hello all! I have been enjoying my new pond until I saw a drowned sparrow
in it. I think he tried to land on my water lettuce. How do you deal
with
this? I was thinking of placing chicken wire under the plants

I suppose sloping sides and shelves might help an animal to get out of a
pond but not much use if a big pond, then you could use a few solid things
spread around the pond sticking out that birds can jump onto like fountains
or sculpture maybe dead wood??
