Erika's Garden Pond

Close up of my Pond.

Well, what I can say about my fish.

I had lots of Fish before the Heron came.
I have to cover my pond with a net , because one day I saw this really big Bird standing next to the pond watching them and later my fish were all hiding and acting nervous. They had never done that in the 3 years I had my pond.

I found out from internet that this bird is a Heron, didn't know and have never seen one before in Australia.

I have seen him a few more times and also noticed a little fish that I bred myself now missing, also a big fish with those big eyes was bitten in eye and had big hole in body. Luckily he survived.
Lately I haven't seen that big bird again hopefully he stays away for good now.
