Well I bought my Duckweed and put it in a big wash tub, so I could add
some
to the Pond as needed. I was worried last night, as it rained pretty hard
and I filled the tub a little too full. I had visions of all the Duckweed
floating out of the tub.

So I checked it first thing this morning and the water level was lower
than
before the rain. I looked closely and noticed that more than half of my
Duckweed is gone! Damn Varmints! It looks like the Coons had a drinking
party last night. Might have been the Rabbits I suppose.

I guess the tub was not a bright idea in any event, as I have no way to
keep
the skeeters out.

OK, so Coons don't eat Duckweed. I looked again and saw some dried up
Duckweed on the ground around the tub. Silly Coons must have been using the
Wash Tub for washing. This explains why the water level dropped, they
overflowed the tub during their bath.
