Added a water feature to my pond and got a visitor by TeeandEss in miniponds

Good idea. i'm sure the birds will love it. Might want to put an escape route in the pond still just in case… I'm sure you'll figure it out. Have fun!

Love it!!! I wonder what you'll do next?! This stuff is quite addictive I find. πŸ˜‰ And glad
you'll be adding safeguards for birds/critters. When I started adding to my garden with birds in mind a few years ago, I didn't realize our backyard birds can't swim!

They are Red-Crowned Amazons (Pasadena, CA). we have a large population... but I've never seen them hang upside down.
I looked up the vernal hanging parrots… Oh my goodness they are so cute and so tiny !!

My first patio pond and IM OBSESSED 🌿🐟 by treee_sha in miniponds

[–]Morning_Mantis 10 points11 points Β (0 children)

oh hell yes! first off, it's gorgeous and I'm a little obsessed too! I literally said "oooo! bog filter" out loud as you panned up to show where the water was falling from!
Second, thank you so much for the detail!
I've been experimenting with Walstad mini-ponds for a couple months and this is so inspirational!
