Went out to the artesian pond around five this morning with a flashlight. After some time, I saw the tell-tale jerky movement of a scud/shrimp along the bottom of the mostly algae-covered pond. Just one, but all we added were the few PK's last fall. It only looked 3/4" long, but the pond has not had any scuds added. I am just glad that the somewhat unique water conditions are suitable for their survival. Hopefully, they will reproduce and build up before we get a big flood.
