Chasing waterfalls

The connecting pools which lead from the small top pond to the main bottom pond are in need of cleaning and repair. Over time soil has become wedged in cracks in the limestone, plants have grown, cracks have expanded and the small pool edges have come apart. The main pond is all fine so that is being left alone.

First step yesterday was to safely move the inhabitants from the small pools, the largest of which was the 3 frogs under a stone. They've been encouraged to hop to a safer space in the garden now and the water has been removed.

With the small pools all now empty and the weather forecast is showing no rain incoming - we should be good to go. 

The only challenge is I haven't ever done this before - so watch and wait for progress, or otherwise!
