Pond dreaming is over

   / Pond dreaming is over #231  
I've thought about doing the same thing but haven't seen anything that is affordable. There are some game cameras at Cabelas that do this, but the cost is more then I'm willing to pay. I've even thought about mounting a camera on the roof of the house with a zoom on it that I could focus on my feeder that is far away and keep an eye on it that way, but I haven't seen anything with good resolution that I want to pay for. Probably never gonna happen, but it would be nice if it did.

Good Afternoon Phil,
Really enjoyed all the pond and windmill pictures ! That bench looks like the ticket for some relaxing moments and reflection.

I encountered some problems when trying to download some pictures from my IPhone onto TBN. It seems that it would not accept the .ASPX file extension. I just ended up using my little Kodak camera and then downloading from my computer. the .JPG extension didnt encounter any problems !

Good Luck !

Thanks for the info. However for some reason the second row of button on the app don't appear on the samsung s5 phone.
I'm uploading to google drive now. I will post in the morning.

This are pics of the equipment that we used They are random shots between the two day's the we dug. a very modest guess on the amount of dirt that we moved would be about 1800 yards. tomorrow I will spread the pile of dirt that you see the machine walking down. the last picture is from the island facing the wind mill at sun set.

We moved about 6.5' to 8'h x 25'w x 150' of over burden then we dug down below water level an other 8' below water level. the pond is now 1/3 bigger and I am done digging.

Nice pond!

Are those chunks (pic #5) being dug up heavy clay? You sure don't lack for water.
