Had a great white heron visit us for the past few days. I scared it away
several times, but he still managed to spear 1 of the smaller koi through
the netting, he just couldn't pull it out of the netting, and me running out
the back door didn't give him the time to try.

I can tell spring is coming because the filter drum has exploded with a few
thousand snails. I'll have to clean the drum soon and turn all the snails
into koi snacks.
