What’s Up??
This frog is getting brave…..I can get close to him and it doesn’t seem to matter. That is if I talk before I get to him so it doesn’t frighten him. He likes to hid behind my Rain Lily. Maybe he just likes his picture taken hehe. I sure do alot of that. Now there [...]

What great weather we have had here in Ohio the last few days. Such a relief to have all the snow and ice melted and behind us for now. I’m trying to not get too exited. A cold front is approaching and we will be back to freezing this weekend. Nice while it lasted [...]

Walked out to the pond the other morning, and there they were, a pair of Mallard Ducks! My first thought was, oh how pretty they are, and what a cute couple they make! I started to have visions of the nest they would build next to the pond, after that the family of ducklings would [...]

Those annoying predators…..the one we dislike the most when we have fish swimming about. Some of our customers have had their ponds depleted of fish because of the blue heron! They are beautiful birds but please stay away from our ponds. You’d think they’d go for the larger ponds with more fish. Blue Herons are [...]
