I have a pond with 10 goldfish that are maybe 6 inches long. Mostly they are the typical gold colors but I have two that have white and one that has more black. I also have two red slider turtles. They are who I built my pond for actually. The goldfish are there to be their "friends". And it makes the pond more fun to watch. Although the turtles swim around quite a bit too.
Today when I was hanging out and feeding the turtles and fish, I thought I saw a little dark shape in the water... Then I saw another one. It was small goldfish. Maybe one inch long. Totally unexpected. How fun! I hope they make it. They must be pretty smart to have made it this far.
I have hiding places for the fish and turtles - which is good because I used to have 20 big goldfish but a blue heron stopped by for a few snacks for a couple of days a few months ago. I thought I had no fish at all, but they slowly reappeared when they stopped being so afraid.
Loving this pond. Peaceful and yet so full of life!

I forgot my phone at the brewery, but John was kind enough to let me borrow his. I wanted to take a picture of my pond. When I went outside...

Well today I did not see the little fish. I certainly hope they are still there. I didn't have much time to sit and watch today though. ...
