Phone fuccked up a wheen o hours ago when I attempted to respond to Gimlet, an ah canny get rid of nor delete.

 

Anyway,

Bollocks to that bloody Heron that I just witnessed snatching a 4 year old Rainbow trout, who strayed too far into the shallows.

No doubt with a reward like that he will be back!

Nature, huh!

So roughly what size are your4 year old Rainbow as a matter of interest.. I see Herons all the time and watched one last week struggling with a fish that looked to be around 5 or 6oz, cheers.

Mac,

Visually looked about 10" to 12", still quite a few survivors though, since in the sunny blink this morning the water was "fair boiling" wi rising fish.

I have no idea what is hatching and rising to the surface just now, but there was definitely  some invertebrate life on the move today.

We need to source some fertile fish to stock the pond, and I suppose I am thinking of wild brown trout?

Then we can afford to feed the bloody Heron.

Marcus.

EDIT.

Old Peculier and "mezes" today, but only while Senior Management cooks my fillet steak.

Just hopped back in the tractor to do another wee turn, after my siesta(and am I turning Greek or Spanish?) and having noticed the nest material in the heater vent apertures a couple of days ago, despite me working the tractor for a solid week, fresh moss added today!

Nature, huh!

Dash ripped out in rather a hurry the day she tried to go on fire!
