I just spent the past 3.5 hours walking around in the woods at night with a few students for an amphibian night lab. Full moon, wood frogs and barred owls calling through the night, spotted salamanders swimming around. (they requested a weekend option, and it was only supposed to be 2 hours but they wanted to keep exploring more). the night and their excitement of seeing wildlife lifts my mood.

Today has been very productive.
After draining the #pond, and clearing some space around it, I dug out and remade it.
It is now more than twice the original size, and deeper.
I have not been able to completely fill it, as I'm using #rainwater collected in water butts, and I've emptied them, but rain is due in the next day or two.
I'll finish what I can tomorrow, including trimming the liner, and getting the pump going.
