I imagine there are a thousand ways to screw up building a pond, so
don't take this as encyclopedic, I've only stumbled on a few.

Brevity snips

Have you been seriously affected by the drought down south? Have you
received much rain? I remember you mentioning your pond being real low.

We have been affected by the drought. The pond by my house, which
normally has 4-5 feet of water, has been down to only inches of water.
That is largely why I dug the small water garden, it seemed to me that
there ought to be something with more than a few inches of water.
