A heron decided to stop by and eat most of my larger koi and goldfish this morning.

Bummer!    :'(   Hopefully you can net or put up fishing line to protect the remaining fish.

There is never enough room for all of the water lilies that I want ;-)

 >:(- Darn those fish eating birds!!!  I have netting over my ponds now.  Only see egrets and green herons scoping and fly bys.  Sorry you lost so many pets.

oh Bob I am sorry. I have never had one and hope I never do. My ponds go straight down on the sides no wading for them.

Stretched some mono across the pond and ordered netting.  So far so good.
