All things green, outdoors, and nature-y. Whether it's animals in their natural habitat, hiking trails and mountains, or planting a little garden for yourself (and everything in between), you can talk about it here.

So my wife decided that she wanted a pond for Mother's Day (like small garden pond - we live in the burbs) and so she got one.... Took longer than a day, but we at least started on Mother's Day. Anyway - her ultimate goal was to get a 'natural' pond set up and get frogs to spawn in the pond.... While we still need to do some work covering the liner at the top - it's in and we filled it with water like 3 weeks ago... We now have tadpoles!! And a pair of mallards are using it for like a love nest or something - they come and go throughout the day, splash around taking baths, etc. ...
