The joy of a duck pond. ^_^

[BunnyEberhart]

Some people want their duck ponds to look like swimming pools. That is an unrealistic expectation unless you have the time, money, energy, and space to commit to dealing with a big filtration system. I have a small one that is meant only to keep the pump from clogging up. I empty and refill my pond once a week in the summer, less in the winter. Here is a normal day in the life of a duck owner.

There is nothing better than perfectly clean water. Except making that water filthy!

I wondered what mine were doing today, unusually exuberant mud pie making, then I realized i had left the hose running for 45 mins
