Mack Makes a Discovery

Little "Mack" comes to visit



Something is Moving



!
Discovering what's new in
Auntie Carol and Uncle Gordon's courtyard...
through the eyes of Little "Mack" our 18 month-old buddy.






See? Right there!
Ten Fish!
Here, Fishy, Fishy, Fishy, Fishy! *
Half of a pomegranate...

Okay, what else is there to do around here?

Hey Casey, let's go find a Bigger Fish Pond!

Fun to feed the Fish, but really HARD to let go of the Bread.

Our courtyard pond has been replenished with 10 new koi.**  We haven't named them, just in case the culprit who 'took-off' with the last batch returns; cat? heron? roving neighbor?   The new batch swims in a healthy environment because we spotted a six-inch crawfish in the pond this past weekend! 

 Nature is amazing! - and so is Little "Mack!"

Thanks for Reading,


Cricket

Next week is Golden Week - a National Holiday in China. 
There are live fish reasonably priced for sale...I may have to have just a few more!

I loved these photos so much :) He looks so at home in your garden, and what a fun place it is for him to explore!

Holding good thoughts for the new fishies!
