Interesting, does he leave a lid on or off? I would have thought off.

No risk can dipping, we draw off the tap, however, all of ours are linked
together, what if one gets stuck in the pipe linking them together or in the
tap when drawing off?

Have to have words with my neighbour, his bred like mad and we put about 80
in my daughter's pond and they all vanished!!

There's a heron round here who snaffles from the ponds. We saw the
crows chasing it the other day. Absolutely amazing to watch!
Here the rooks main attack is on buzzards. It always amuses me, even a
lone rook, even though a lot smaller can see a buzzard off.
