Ponds

[welsh dragon]

Think I could actually go fishing in that!

We do. Mr WD always wanted his own pond that he could fish. We have common carp, mirror carp, tench, roach, rudd, crucian carp, a few stickle back's and a few perch to keep the fry down to a reasonable number. There must be well over 250 fish.

If you don't know anything about ponds, the best thing you can do is to buy a book and read the dos and don'ts.

Love my little pond, no fish just lots and lots of frogs

 

[welsh dragon]

Ponds are great no matter how small. Just hearing the sound of running water is very soothing

That's a lovely pond @welsh dragon. You ought to get a corracle.

Mr WD wants a dinghy to clear the reeds and weeds out of the pond. Maybe I should suggest he gets one. Glad you like it. It kept him busy digging it that's for sure.

Are you going to have fish in your pond

First 3 koi

I like koi. We used to have them. We bought them with us to heee from birmingham, but an otter got hold of them and ate the lot.

Thanks Reiver.

We've had lots of little ones despite no frog spawn in our new little pond, I'm assuming that the are all from next door's pond. That one above is really cute! I don't know why some people hate frogs, I love them!

I share your sentiments.

I happen to have a pie in the oven right now. No frogs were harmed in the process - they are too small to fillet at the moment.
