Thank you Aimee. Hard to miss when such beautiful creatures are so close to the surface. Could watch them all day. #9053258Joan E. Hoffman November 26, 2010
Dale, I missed this one completely... fortunately, I decided it had been awhile since I have visited your gallery, and found it! This is stunningly beautiful.I used to have a Koi pond, back in the day when we lived in a house without wheels. Had to winter them in a stock trough in our house over winter... being that we were very close to the 60th parallel! #9065379
