The pond is full, the fountain and filter are working well and the water is clear. I still haven't moved Marge and George into the aquarium, but am putting extra netting over the pond every day because I saw evidence that a bird has been eyeing the pond while I've been at work. No wonder my fishies were getting shy! Now that double nets are up, the fish are bolder. I love that. Cleopatra is still hanging out at the pond. I think one other Leopard frog is, too, but I haven't seen a toad in ages.
I put a little lit Christmas tree on the porch tonight as a festive touch. Later in the evening, I looked out the window and say Marge swimming around pretty aggressively. Normally at night, they just stay still. Are they sleeping? I think so! But tonight, Marge was pretty active so I was afraid there was a snake or some other menace around. I checked and all was well. When I came out, they settled down. Maybe they don't like the lights from the Christmas tree.
