Mr Heron
Today's the day ....................... to solve a mystery
I think this could answer the question as to how and why we currently have no fish in our pond.
A month ago, we had six of them and they were doing very well. They had survived the winter - and the influx of spawning frogs - and could be seen swimming about quite happily in the pond that Will had made in our front garden. It's not big - perhaps six foot square - and a couple of feet at its deepest. It is well camouflaged with plants growing in it and around it. So how on earth could a high-flying heron spot it amongst all the gardens that surround it?
Well - obviously it did because this is the sight that greeted me when I pulled back the curtains this morning. The larder was empty of course so it didn't stay around for long. The question is - if we got some more fish - would they suffer the same fate as the last lot ........................?
