What brought me into the hobby when I was a little girl was turtles.. so the first thing I look for when I find any water is my little shelled friends! And wow red-eared sliders.it's just a shame that people don't think about the environmental issues when they release outgrown pets! This is what inspired me to do my creek video the other day. Just getting out and seeing nature and what kind of wildlife is around! Thanks Bob for sharing! I hope you have a great day! 🙏🌱🐟🌿
enjoyed this so much! out here in western Maryland, we went to a very secluded swamp today and saw some beavers and huge bass spawning. We've got some gambusia that have been living in a heavily leaf-littered tub outside for months now. They definitely do well eating mosquito larvae! Ask Frank Cowherd to reminisce sometime on how they'd get swarms of daphnia back on the farm years ago . . . (something about tossing a cat into the pond and waiting a few days)
I'll bet you your county put those gambusia in the pond. Where I live our counties vector control will give you those fish if you have bodies of water on your property to keep the mosquitoes down. We actually went to their office and they gave us some to put in our livestock tanks we rarely fed them they seem to thrive in there
I love that pond - especially the birds as that is my second hobby apart from fish! Thanks for sharing!

Fish Folk Secluded swamp? Sounds like a new video to me! Glad you liked the pond video. Thanks for writing.
Circa 1979 the science show Nova had an episode called The Pond. I wish I could watch it again. This reminds me of it.
Nice place to visit. Thank you.
And you're a good visitor to have, Tarcan.
Awesome video! Very informative!
Thanks, Dave!
You sir are terrible wholesome. Thank you for the field trip
That’s good, right? You’re welcome. Thanks for stopping by.
