Back at the farm. Pond is down another inch, but I think it's from soaking into the ground and evaporation. We have had zero rain here with full sun and lower humidity. The water has a green layer on it. I am thinking it's what you guys call a algae bloom, but I'm not sure. I also can't remember if it's good or bad. Ha The frogs have found it. Seems like there is a small frog about every eight feet along the bank. Last night there were a dozen bats flying back and forth over the clearing. Water still has a lot of suspended clay, but some seems to be settling out. 25 bales of hay so far, and it's (the surrounding ground and dam) are about 50% covered. This week continues to be dry. Rain in the forecast for next week though. I'll try to post a pic of the green layer, if I can get a better signal. Jeff
9 yr old pond, 1 ac, 15' deep. RES, YP, GS, FHM (no longer), HBG (going away), SMB, and HSB (only one seen in 5 yrs) Restocked HSB (2020) Have seen one of these. I think that's about all I should put in my little pond. Otter attack in 2023
