The goldfish pond activity

It's a good place of refuge for the frogs, since the wetland is dry and growing vegetation. The goldfish are growing, and I seem to have 10 babies. I have 7 adults, including Shirley 5, who turned white at one point. I feed them, from time-to-time, just to be able to count them.

 I love how the fish nip the froggy toes by mistake, and froggies hop away in surprise. I haven't seen the watersnake since I moved it.

 

The Alewives have procreated, as well. The waterlilies look lovely.

Looks like it's a nice thing to have.

Quite a lot of life in the pond!

Wonderful fish -- I bet they are glad you have to take a 'census' every once in a while, since it involves special treats for them!
