The pond on our property, when originally dug by the previous owner, had a shallow end. When the water levels were low it was only a wet grass area.
Last week I got a loaner Cat excavator to dig out the shallow end and connect it to the main pond. The wife stayed busy moving a little of the dirt with the Kubota.
