So far, we have only had the one pair defend the big pond for the last three years. They have run off all comers.
And they are fun to watch and talk to. It has gotten to the point that when I shoot, they don't even move away. That is why the had to be named.
If in the future we do have a population explosion, I can take care of that situation as well. I have a really big smoker available anytime!
