December Goldfish

After last weeks snow, today the temperature hit 60 degrees and so it was a good day to do some pond filter cleaning. It started off with a disappointment when I found a dead six inch Goldfish floating under one of the Styrofoam pieces. There weren't any obvious signs of trauma so I don't know how he died. Thankfully that was the only dead one that I found. As you can see from the pictures, we still have a good batch of Goldfish swimming around in the pond. This is a good point to end this year and publish the 4th Pond Diary. "The Pond Diary 2009"
