I got the banks mowed yesterday. Trying to push all the leaves that had the banks buried, back into the woods. So, today, I’m just enjoying it a bit. When the feeder went off the e food was gone pretty quick. I can’t tell what’s taking the food. Water is cloudy from recent rain. There was one very big swirl. Must be one of my original SMB taking some of the shiners that are taking the feed.
Just a few more inches to full pool. But this is the best it’s looked in years.

RES, YP, GS, FHM (no longer), HBG (decreasing), SMB, and HSB (only two have been seen in 5 yrs)
I think that's about all I should put in my little pond.
