A lovely hot afternoon perfect for pond work...many thanks to Mark H from the National Park, Dusty, Jo, Mike F and Ro.....
sandals off ...Ro ready for a paddle....
captions invited......
this is what she found.....adult water boatman - lots of babies & diving beetles already in the pond
and pics too from Dusty's camera
before any trimming work
marking out the trench for folding the liner in
Passed the responsibility of the cutting blade into Mark's capable hands.....
shifting grass clumps to add to the edge
just one edge left for Mike to do, as he missed out on the working party
the branch will be partly buried and anchored with stones - hopefully a perch for birds
the water level is low after no rain this week, but no doubt it will soon be full again
Mike impressed - he saw a swallow passing over in the evening to collect flies!
