New pond

finally finished the new pond system. 3 ponds in all, feeder, beech and lower housing the pump. none are that deep, only about 50cm, so no fish, mainly because I didnt have a pic-axe to get through the flint/clay/chalk that we have as sub'soil'. Quite chuffed with it really!

top feeder reservior
very happy with the reservoir now, took a lot to get it sorted though! (theres my blood in there somewhere as the roses kept biting me!)

across the middle pond
pond levels totally controlled by the 2 waterfalls.. leaving the lower pond for topup

took me along time to get the waterfall right.
