Default Extending my pond with a bog area.

I wanted to extend the one end of my pond with a bog area. I was thinking of
having my filter return water to the pond via the bog.

Since the two would be interconnected a significant amount, how would I prevent
the soil in the bog from washing into the pond? Any suggestions on ensuring the
filter return doesn't erode the bog soil into the pond?

Also, any basic guidelines or references on building a bog would be appreciated.


after building my bog lost spring I put all the plants in baskets, after
quesitoning the group about soil or rock this spring they will remain
in baskets, I did put a hump between the bog and pond and have had no
problem with dietrus crossing from bog to pond.
