After almost 2 years of searching and indecision, finally we pull the trigger and shake the hand with a contractor to build a pond on our property. It will be around 0.5 acre in a kidney shape. The weather was and is quite cold so the heavy tracks didn't make a lot of mess on the property so far. They are using one big excavator, one bulldozer and two tracks for hauling. Today was the third day and half of the pond is done. The good news is that is almost 4ft of water already and is filling fast. The operator said he touched couple good springs at 14ft so the water will not be a problem filing this pond. It will take some time to finish as the excavated soil have to be haul up the hill at 700ft from the pond to level other side of the property. Here are couple pictures over the 3 days. I'll keep you posted.
