Susie-Q&A

• Jul. 9, 2008 - Sown and Mulched

Here's the pond area with the grass seed and straw down.  Hubby worked very hard in the heat today to get this in before the next rain.



"Fish structures."  Not hidey-holes.


Close up of fish structure #1:


The stone fish structure:


Obviously the water has evaporated a bit, but the pond holds water like a pair of rubber training pants holds...never mind.  I need to get out more. 

Did hubby not do an awesome job lining this thing with clay?


Behind the dam:


I wish I could get a good picture of the dam, but I have a hard time making it stand out from the surroundings in the photos.

Anybody know what kinds of butterflies these are?  I don't have a nature guide to butterflies.  What are they after here?  Moisture?


This one's colorful:


UPDATE:  Cabbage White Butterfly, perhaps?

That is going to be a beautiful pond! I can't wait to see it evolve.
I think hidey holes gives a better mental picture than "fish structure".
