The Pond Saga continues

The remaking of a wildlife pond,my poor old pond gave up the fight a few years ago now, so i had to re line it re stock it with plants and let nature do the rest.Bit disappointing at first , just a midge infested pool, but slowly and surely things started to happen , some newts took up residence and started to lay eggs, and i now have baby newtlets, then a damselfly appeared and started laying eggs, a big old diving beetle also took up residence, hope it doesnt eat baby newts though.So slowly but surely nature has come and inhabited my pond, all i need now is a dragonfly and i shall be happy.
Frogs have also been coming and going ,hopefully the midge larvae will be eaten by something.
