After
the Rain
7 May 2004
After several days of heavy rain
- and with the resulting supply of water from our steep roof,
the pond was already looking quite full
I've planted quite a few
grasses and sedges around the pond, as well as some of them
in the water. Tim had spent some time placing a large rock in the water at
the far end
of the pond, as well as some flat rocks which he stood up.
I just hope that
the frogs realise this duck is not going to make a meal of them!
It was created by my sister in law, Anna Ashton and I think this is the ideal
spot for him
July 2004 - The pond is now full
and the wood ducks often come to swim
I was amused to see that the male
wood duck companionably sitting with
its new found friend!
