A couple of years ago someone dumped some goldfish in a pond near where I live.
A couple of years ago someone dumped some goldfish in a pond near where I live. At first we counted a handful and then 40 or so. Last year they seemed to explode in population and we started wondering if the pond would be able to support that many.
Yesterday, while out walking the Rufus I noticed through the ice some orange (or gold) in clumps. Today I saw even more. Lots more.
This picture is the same group of fish and that's my shadow. That's just one grouping of "gold" under the ice. Granted, it might be the largest one, but there were at least 3 others I saw and all of them were about half this large.
Perhaps the ducks and geese will be feasting come ice melt. Who knows?

Finally, the wife realized that they were "having goldfish sex. Who knew!". Great laughs were had by all!
I really hope the ducks and geese help with population control on that front. If not, the pond will do it's own job for them.
