My husband has been working on his fountain and little pond this spring, and he is much closer to having it finished now. Once he has it working, then we can put in some water plants, and of all goes well, then we will get a couple of goldfish from Walmart and see how they do in there
The birds are already liking it, and we saw one that was getting a drink from where the water dribbles down from the top.
The pump takes the water up to the top of a tall piece of driftwood,which is covered with plastic leaves to look like it is real, and then the water slowly cascades down over the leaves and into the tiny pond at the bottom.
The birds can sit on the branches of the driftwood and get a drink of fresh running water, and probably even take a bird bath if they want to.
It still has more work to go; but here is a picture of how it is looking so far. It is hard to see in the picture, but the water is trickling down from the top of the driftwood, and down over the leaves.
