Pond Pioneer Gifts

Fisherman Evolution: They have evolved over the years with three distinct species...the largest of these is the coarse fisherman.

Wildlife

Frog to other frog: 'Hey, nice pad.'

"Where's all your fish?" "I never should have bought 'coy' fish."

Water Gardening: One thing is certain - you will find the peace and tranquility of water an almost irresistible attraction.

Garden pond: mosquito breeding ground

"It's a beautiful world out there, just waiting to be discovered. Well, discovered by one of you, the rest will almost certainly die."

'Thanks, we really appreciate this. Yeah, the middle button. Don't worry, it's auto-focus - just aim and shoot.'

'Hey, Baby! How would you like to kiss the frog formerly known as 'Prince'?'

But there are other pleasures still for the fisherman's delight....for nature is everywhere about him.

Mother Duck.

"This blood knot ought to be re-named the blood, sweat and tears knot."

Business Duck

"I can't wait to start growing limbs so that I can use a tablet..."

'My horoscope said I was going to make someone happy today.'

'I'll say this for you young Thoreu - he certainly does make good use of his pond.'

Ricochet

'We get a lot more wildlife now we have a pond.'

'You've never planted potatoes before have you?'

'I can't shake off this feeling we're being watched.'

Sooners! Opening day of fishing.

"She thought he was a good listener. Turns out he was a decoy."

Vernal Pond: Here today. . . gone tomorrow.

'My ultimate ambition is a large pond.'

"Well, I'll be darned. It does come with its own creature."

Water Gardening: And you will find yourself thinking over many garden problems at the waterside.

"That's brilliant Mr Beaver: These wooden platforms are a lot more durable than lilypads..."

'It's so embarrassing. My mother had my tadpole tail bronzed!'

"Why don't you paint a picture – it'll last longer."
