Very happy with how my first diy pond turned out. And I think I just got my first ever visit from an orange-crowned warbler drinking from the bog. That makes it all worth it. Can't wait for the plants to fill in but I guess now I just sit back and enjoy it and see what else shows up.

Just have the upper waterfall / bog to finish. Very happy with it so far.
Some of my favorite shots from this morning. I'm pretty new so happy to hear any feedback.
First time getting some decent shots of tree swallows. Canon R7 + 800mm f/11. Western WA area.
Just wanted to share this video I took of a Downy woodpecker dad trying to feed his kid and the kid just dancing around a tree limb to avoid him. I love how these birds hop around with very little torso movement.
I have a tendency to go big immediately with new projects, so instead of jumping into building a big backyard pond for my first water feature I'm starting with a small prototype in my front planter. The big pond probably shouldn't be my second water feature either but I'm happy with how this little guy turned out.
