something has been getting into the pond…

I hadn’t seen anything on the camera until a few nights ago, when the camera caught this…

the night view makes it a bit hard to recognize, but the rings on the tail were the confirmation that it is a raccoon… it didn’t appear that any fish had been caught…

I think the fish are being careful to stay hidden under the bridge…

on Sunday night they came by again and the camera caught them right in the pond…

I spotted one of the fish sort of wedged under a rock, so I moved the rock and the fish swam away… it looks a bit scraped up, so I hope it will be okay…

I put two chairs across the spot where I think they are going into the water and then sprinkled Epsom salts around the rest of the pond…
