Here's some wildlife from here.
This cheeky bustard was standing on the edge of my fishpond the other morning.
Since then my fish have been hugging the bottom, I think they need counselling!

Batty Bat - now I think that is scarey

Brian - I hope you've got your pond covered with mesh. We had to cover ours a few years ago after a heron took most of the fish.
