OK, so it's not officially summer yet but it is June. So I figure many of you have started to set up your ponds by now. So, lets see some pond pictures of how they look. Don't worry if they're a work in progress, you can add updated pics of your pond throughout the summer.

So, who's going to be first to show us your pond?

Well.. I've actually started on mine (but the progress thus far is laughable).

Tree roots be darned... I'll figure this location thing out yet. :yes:

Here's a couple pics of the aforementioned roots.-

I think the trees will be okay if I only have to chop out a few of the smaller roots,
but have come across a few of the larger ones (circled), and don't want to damage those.

Maybe you're going to have to become creative with the shape of your pond (work it around the major tree roots).

Very nice. Lucky fish! I guess the bird like to drop by to drink and bathe, too.
