Today we had lunch on the pond deck (with homemade sourdough rolls). Forgive the dirty table; we haven’t used it for quite some time. We really should do that more often, but it’s less convenient than just using the house’s main deck.

On the homestead blog: yesterday I opened the duck house pop door for the first time, and while Bert joined them, the new ducks didn’t venture into the pond. But today was different; they had their first swims in the pond! 🦆
On my YouTube channel, a video with three clips of our waterfall, cascades, and pond.
On the homestead blog: some aerial photos of our homestead from my drone. 🚁
I thought it’d be fun to join the Micro.blog photo meetup from my pond, but the Wi-Fi was too dodgy, so I couldn’t connect reliably. D’oh! Here’s a selfie, anyway. // @macgenie
On the Dejus YouTube channel, a time-lapse video of a week of our pond, including our duck swimming around, me cleaning out the duck house in preparation for new ducklings, and a heron sighting. Thanks to Camect for generating this summary video.
A GIF of heavy rain on the pond. The ducks don’t care. 🌧🦆
In case you missed it, one of the GIFs of fish and a duck from today’s bonus homestead post.
On the homestead blog: some bonus pictures of the fish and ducks in our pond. The koi are starting to come out of hibernation, becoming more active as the weather warms up.
