The algae was impossible to control. The minnows liked it, and two tough old goldfish - but that was about it.
This is where Pennie & I go to relax. And you would be surprised how a little bit of wilderness in the big city can attract so many visitors

I've had the pond there for several years, but never paid it much attention. | |

getting in shape (coming soon) | |
As you can see, the water quality greatly increased and Goldie loves it! |
|
The doves wasted no time in visiting the bird bath, while the sparrow (below) inched closer to Turtle World. | |
In the lemon grass to the right of the pond, we now have two lizards living. This one is called Big Green. |
|
His mate is this shy girl, called Little Brown. (I know - real original) | |
In no time at all, the birds started making their way to the pond - there are six in this shot. |
|
The sand proved particulary attractive to the sparrows as they started coming in larger groups | |
Word must have gotten out because these guys LOVE the beach - now called Sparrow Beach. |
|
cool colored one (coming soon_ | |
Yet another guest comes by to check out the hubbub. |
|
Pennie took this shot as he called for his friends. | |
This little fella heard the call and came running. He joined in the chorus to bring in reenforcements... |
|
And boy did they come... can you find the five toads in this shot? | |
First comes toad love - then comes marriage - then come... well - you know! |
|
What would Turtle World be without a turtle. This fella's name is Gulliver - because he really enjoys travelling. | |
THIS is the life. Relaxing by Turtle World with all my new friends! |
