Took a few more pics of the wildlife in and around the ponds today, as well as a few of the drains, and water color.
This is supposedly the northernmost drain for pond 1. Yeah right.

This is the fill for all 3, this runs 24/7.

This is the best I could get for the water color in pond 1.

Water snake I caught in a minnow trap that wasnt in the water.


Tree frog, he was shortly dispatched by a hungry LMB.

IDK..it was about 2.5 inches long.

at the risk of jacking my own thread..I think its a happy ecosystem out here. I just want all the ponds to be at the same clarity, and level, with proper flow, and vegitation.
