Those ponds are shaping up, Phatboy! You'll have paradise before you know it.

One thought: you might leave one bank or a portion of a bank on each pond grown-up somewhat to attract dragonflies and such. I'm not an expert on this, but there are a couple old phosphate pits I'm working with that have very overgrown banks, and it's like dragonfly Mardi Gras every time I go there - I've never seen as many of the critters anywhere. They lay their larvae in the water and said larvae are then eaten by the bluegill (I learned this from Bruce).
