Water Lillies and Goldfish
A few days back, I posted some water lilly photos from a brother's pond. Someone asked me whether he still grew water lillies. The answer is yes. On Sunday, he took us into a small greenhouse addition to his shop where he has a small indoor pond with water lillies and goldfish. He also has water lillies in a small pond at his home but not at the large pond next to their greenhouses. The muskrats invaded that pond keeping it clean of most growing plants.

Muskrats? I would love to see a photo of them Tim!

Hi, Tim, do you recognize me ? I'm so happy to practice my English in your blog, even if you're not English but American ! The weather seems mild where you live. I have to change every spring my own water hyacinths. They don't like to be frosted !
Those goldfish are amazing.
You take such serene photos Tim...thanks for always sharing them!
I didn't realize goldfish looked so orange. That's interesting.
Hi, san nakji. I don't currently have any picture of muskrats of my own. But you can see lots of pictures of muskrats at http://www.northrup.org/Photos/muskrat/. And, yes, ponds with waterlillies are nurturing to the soul.
Thanks, cher. They do communicate peace - a beauty of simply being.
Thanks, nabeel. It is good to know that others appreciate these things, too.
Hi, cergie. I sure do recognize you. And you are welcome to practice your English in my blog. The weather is mild now; but during our winters we do get cold weather and usually some snow.
Hi, bobby. Yes, the goldfish are amazing and beautiful.
Thanks, tai. I enjoy sharing my photos. Thanks for coming by.
Thanks, kristi. Their color may depend on a variety of factors including age and the angle of light shining on them. Thanks for dropping by.
Beautiful! We have a pond on our property and the racoons have depleted my fish and plants on many occasions.
Great photos!

Thanks, andrea. So our ponds, plants, and animal life face a variety of threats. Yet the struggle is worth it for the beauty we experience.
Your photos are lovely. I like the water lily one, especially.
Thanks, hick. Water lillies are beautiful, aren't they?
