Hi Augie, would love to see a recent picture of your pond. I remember all the pics you posted while you were moving the dirt.
I'm really glad you asked, because I saw something cool when I went out to get the pic. A green heron flew out from under the buttonbush that's on the pond dam about 15' to the left of the dock ramp and perched on the old fence that cuts the pond. Then another flew out from the same place and joined the first one. I see one almost every day but this is the first time I've seen the male and female together so now I'm wondering if maybe they're nesting in the tangle on the west side of the pond.
