POND

2021 UK pressing

This is not the #90s indie band that was on Sub-Pop. This is the Australian band from Perth with loose connections to the group Tame Impala.

Kind of a cool sound; way more screwed and psychedelically fucked than their previous efforts. It’s definitely my favorite album of theirs, and definitely the most engaging to MY ears. Lots of surprising musical twists and turns, and unpredictable.

Give this a try.

More pond lillies today!

A white lilly with a yellow interiornblooms at the edge of a small pond.

A bright pink lilly blooms in another small pond near a waterfall from a blue tub.

Koi fish, with their vibrant colors and graceful movements, are more than just ornamental pond dwellers; they are symbols of perseverance and strength in Japanese culture. Originating from the common carp, Koi have been selectively bred for centuries, resulting in a variety of stunning patterns and hues.

Brightly colored koi fish swim gracefully in a serene pond surrounded by vibrant green lily pads and pink water lilies.

Bird pond update: I decided to route the water (tube) through the stump. And we got a stronger pump. I am thinking a bowl shaped rock placed in the stream might diffuse the flow a bit.

I did try to stack flat rocks for a waterfall, but they weren’t cooperating and I gave up. There is a decent chance this iteration will change. #Birds #pond #habitat

Not the best-quality shot, but I wanted to offer a hopeful photo for a hopeful day.

I believe in the future
We shall suffer no more
Maybe not in my lifetime
But in yours, I feel sure
Song dogs barking at the break of dawn
Lightning pushes the edges of a thunderstorm
And these streets
Quiet as a sleeping army
Send their battered dreams to heaven
— Paul Simon

A serene landscape in northern Idaho in hues of blue and green. In the foreground is a pond bordered by long grass; the far end of the pond is separated by only a thin strip of land from the Clearwater River in the middle distance. Beyond the river are fir-covered mountains. At left are the branches of a tree partly out of frame. Above is a blue sky streaked by cirrus clouds, with a partially overexposed sun at upper left.

Open Field With Wooden Gate and Pond

A tranquil countryside scene features an open gate leading to rolling fields under a sky filled with scattered clouds. A small pond surrounded by trees adds a serene focal point to the landscape.

Bird pond update: a female cardinal found it! It’s not even finished, but she took a bath and explored the perches. I’m so excited!! I need a trail cam or goPro out there. #Birds #cardinal #pond #Landscape

36.0 Echos / Echo #23 - The Pond to Be

This echo was recorded on my Zoom H5 with Rode NTG1 shotgun mic on Feb 20, 2022, edited today.
Ducks, birds, pedestrians, cyclists, seaplane, Beaver Lake is THE pond to be.

Went for a walk and spied two swans dining on underwater meals on a pond with lots of algae covering in the background. #forest #nature #pond #swan

Two swans facing each other in an algae-covered pond. They are eating whatever they find under the surface. The view of the swans is partially obscured by branches in the foreground going from left to right, and the tall grasses on the water’s edge where I am standing. The pond is algae free around the swans, but the algae covers most of the pond seen in the background.

Our little pond is doing exactly what we wanted it to do, be a home for nature.

Only went in the ground last October so the fact that a pair of large red damselflies (pyrrhosoma nymphula) decided to call it home for their young is massively pleasing.

Close up of two red coloured damselflies copulating. Both are perched on a plant with the male clasping the female just behind the head with the end of his abdomen

Two damselflies with the male clasping the female while she deposits eggs under the water. She is standing on a small floating leaf like a tiny lily pad while he is “standing” unsupported by anything on her.

Instant fugace.

Un martin-pêcheur sur un piquet de bois, en bordure d'étang. L'oiseau bleu et orange a les ailes écartées comme s'il venait d'atterrir ou cherchait à garder son équilibre. Dans son long bec fin, il tient un petit poisson qui se tortille pour s'échapper.

Le nettoyeur des étangs - Parmi les nombreux griefs contre le ragondin, il y a son appétit vorace pour la végétation. On accuse souvent le ragondin de détruire des espaces végétaux et d'affaiblir des niches écologiques complètes... En "oubliant" que les milieux où le ragondin fait le plus de dégâts sont surtout les milieux précarisés par les activités humaines (pesticides, pollution, assèchement des terres, destructions, etc.)

En discutant pas mal avec des propriétaires d'étangs, des naturalistes sur le terrain et en comparant pas mal d'observations, on s'aperçoit pourtant que le ragondin peut avoir un rôle "bénéfique" (en tout cas pas si mal perçu). Ainsi lorsqu'il est présent sur les étangs de Sologne, il a tendance à grignoter les herbes nouvelles et à empêcher les roselières de s'étendre trop sur les étangs. (Les étangs de Sologne sont des espaces semi artificiels qui nécessitent un entretien particulier, souvent négligé à cause des logiques de la chasse, si on ne les entretient pas, ils deviennent des marécages).

Certains gestionnaires d'étangs n'ont plus besoin de faucarder les pièces d'eau (enlever les roseaux), ce qui facilite grandement leur tâche (quand ils s'y intéressent un minimum)

Par exemple sur la photo, ce ragondin permet de maintenir un chenal juste devant l'observatoire alors que les iris et les roseaux ont tendance à fermer tout le passage. Comme la gestion de l'étang est particulière (un jour je parlerai des organismes naturalistes-écologistes qui ont une gestion aussi naze que celles des chasseurs), c'est grâce aux ragondins que le site naturel où je vais régulièrement est toujours intéressant et pertinent dans sa mission de sensibilisation à la biodiversité.
