We are enjoying swimming in the sunshine

 

Here is a view of the whole pond with us soon after our return. Our waterlily is in the pot.

 

We finally managed to get our video on the website.

The man came and pumped our water with a loud noise like a waterfall.

We were afraid. So we hid

under our slate shelves. Then he pulled out the plants and one slate shelf. We didn’t have much water left. We hid together under the one slate shelf.

Then he put in the nets. We showed how fast we could swim, twisting and turning, but gradually each of us fell into the nets, flailing and splashing. It was horrible whirling through the air. Fish like water. We love water. We breathe water. Water is our life.

Now we are all swimming in a smaller pond. We don’t mind it. The pump is spraying up and we are together with most of our plants.

We wait to see what happens. The human says she hopes to get a new fibreglass lining cast for The Pond.

The video shows our new little pond and The Pond empty.

 

Fish prepare to move. Your pond is leaking. Experts in ponds will put you in temporary housing until the pond is fixed or they make a new one. That will happen in an hour or so. We are sorry. You will be in temporary housing for a while.

Your friends,

Lynettea and Sasha

We have a new plant. When the food bearer put it at the bottom of the pond, we lined up to inspect it. But by the time she brought the camera, we were swimming around again. We don’t know if we like it or not yet.
