Thats been brought up before they are in shock and shy. They currently hidden in the plants, but I have a shot from the deck at 15x zoom. Best I can do til they get to know me.

I felt bad about the poor quality of the first pic. The pond has ponded waterfall filtered. water is clear.

Fish playing in the waterfall. I kinda like it for the artsy effect.

How do you stop the birds eating the fish without netting? Every pond where I live either has a gauze net or hapy seagulls.

Yeah we will get Herons in this area. The Zen of this pond is Springer Spaniels. The love water, they hate birds.

Lol nice.

Because of the volitional work a mind must have performed to reach for the first time so exalted a level of truth—and because of all the glorious effects such knowledge will have on man’s life, all the possibilities of action it opens up for the future." -- Leonard Peikoff
