Yesterday, I came around the corner, and found a grandpa showing his granddaughter Cecil's diorama. He was going through the different fish species, telling her about the biology for each fish, and she was certainly interested. A heart-warming scene! Thanks again, Cecil. For those of you not familiar with the diorama that Cecil created for our office, here is the link to a picture of the diorama. http://forums.pondboss.com/ubbthreads.php?ubb=showflat&Number=131419#Post131419 Also, here is a link to when he added a pumpkinseed. http://forums.pondboss.com/ubbthreads.php?ubb=showflat&Number=139889&fpart=2 Last edited by ewest; 12/18/15 11:53 AM.

Cecil's work is amazing, photos do not do it justice.

Glad I could warm the heart of someone. $\:\/$ I once had a very young man take a look at a rainbow trout I had jumping out of the water complete with artificial splash. I was manning a booth for our local trout club. Anyway, he turned to his dad and said, "Hey dad why does that trout have ice stuck to it?" Last edited by Cecil Baird1; 02/08/10 09:52 PM. If pigs could fly bacon would be harder to come by and there would be a lot of damaged trees.
