In the vegie garden we have decided to include a pond to attract frogs and bees.

At the old house we had a pond in our outside dining room, or entertaining area, and today (on moving day) we have decided to catch some fish, water snails and grab a pot plant of water plants from it to take to the property.

We got a big black plastic container from Bunnings and a smaller clear container for transporting the fish and plants.  By the time we got the fish to their new home, the dirt from the pot plant had spread through all the water turning it a muddy brown.  We didn’t hold out much hope of our fish surviving, but as it turned out our little brown fish are pretty hardy and after their harrowing journey, could still be found swimming around.
