Not quite but nearly.

Something unknown and quite strong is still attacking my pond and has
dragged out pots in the past and despite netting has now attacked and
broken
my reeds. What creature, I wonder, could have such an obsession against
my
pond? Badger perhaps?


~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
It sounds like you have a raccoon problem. They're very destructive and
come around late at night. Large herons will also turn over pots. A
neighbors dog got into my smaller pond one time and made a real mess. I
don't think there was one plant that wasn't overturned or broken.

This is a classic reason why all posters to Ngs should state roughly where
in the world they are. The poster mentioned Badgers which suggests the UK to
me, the reply mentions Racoons which indicates USA, literally a world apart.
Had similar in the gardening Ngs where Americans grow some of their plants
differently to us here in the UK and without knowing where everyone lives it
can get fraught, nasty even.
