CanadaquaBetween Pond and Tanks

One of our Comets Disappeared

Thursday they were all three still there, Friday I only saw two of them — Agent Orange, the bright orange one nowhere to be found. Yesterday we did the big spring cleaning of the pond and he’s definitely gone, not even a body is there. I’ve never seen a heron around, but that’s the only thing I can think of. Especially since they have lots of hiding places they can scoot to, but herons are patient.

We put all the tender plants and tropicals back in yesterday, so now more than half of the surface is covered, three days too late?

We came home with lots of goodies:

And afterwards we rested our sore feet at the Mexi’s and relaxed with Margaritas and a nice dinner.

That morning Monique had picked me up in the van to go to a couple of nurseries. I have all the pond plants, lots of annuals and a handful of perennials I always wanted. I’ll be a busy planter in the next couple of days. Tomorrow we’ll start with spring cleaning the pond.
