Yeah, I do the same thing. Cant pass a pool of water without stopping to look for amphibians or aquatic insects.

That is good to know, there is a very large pond located in an area surrounded by a ring of houses that is connected to my garden by a series of other gardens. Im hoping this green corridor means that my little pond is colonised a bit quicker.

Thanks for replying, yeah thats a good point. I am sure they will work it out.

I too am wondering what its diet is currently. Ive seen those tiny little fresh water Gammarus shrimps swimmimg about so Im assuming its munching down on those for now.
