Loved that part when they all formed a line - except one

Mrs Duck has done a great job getting that many of her charges to that state of maturity.

Hi nuthatch, the gardener did say there were goldfish in the pond, but I suspect the frequent visits by a couple of herons have an effect on the numbers. Unless they replenish frequently.

So they might have been leaves I saw ... on the left-hand side (?)

I see what you mean nuthatch, looks like goldfish, and lots, but rather think it may be the lily leaves.

Nuthatch! you were right. Went by the pond today, and near the surface, loads of goldfish. I reckon it has be restocked. First time I have ever seen them in the pond. They look quite large. The herons will be pleased.
