I regularly sit by the pond in an evening, reducing the duck weed but no snakes or newts yet!

I have just gained damselflies in/by my pond just this week. I watchd 3 of them flying around and doing damselfly stuff last night. I even thought I saw a female lay some eggs, which is great news.
Its taken a long time but the pond is finaly coming to life!

We sat for nearly an hour yesterday watching two pairs laying eggs all over!  Then we saw Mr Newt and Mr Frog.  Danced the happy dance as we headed in to get on with the chores we were neglecting!
