Our record rainfall filled the pond to within a couple feet of full in just a few days. I have a few erosion issues on the bank where the runoff flows in, but nothing too terrible.
We've been getting ducks and canadian geese pretty regularly. I've also been finding frogs and crayfish around the pond. It's really exciting to see a new ecosystem taking shape out there!
I also stocked some fathead minnows a few days ago.
Next on the agenda is trying to get more vegetation established on the banks and get the muddy water cleared up a bit. Right now it's at pretty much zero visibility.
