Hello Tweeters,
How good it is to belong to the tweeters group ,and all the good advise i
got.Thank you all for the respond and the experience about smal ponds in
gardens.Overwhelming the vote was for the Racoon.I have an option now,To
leave the plant with out any plants ,this rocks ,build spomething like a
fence around it,maybe electric device.Last evening i took the plants out of
the pond,since there in pots and nothing was desturbed around the pond.I
also was thinking about some kind of cover this put it over at nights.I had
this pond now since march,and nothing happen,so i must think the tad poles
was the attraction.So for now i leave them out.But i found out many birders
had this problem with racoons.I like racoons,dont get me wrong,but i also
like little tree frogs.I am not giving up to have a pond.When i drive the
coast this weekend i will visit "THE POND PLACE" again to buy more plants
including the yellow marsh-marigold what some one suggested.
Thanks again to all.
