I used my Rainbow Gardens Groupon to buy this water lily and reed plant. Neither was labeled so I'll be learning about them by trial and error. To complete my tiny water garden, I bought two 2-inch goldfish for 54 cents. I should have taken their picture before I released them because, with all of the turbidity, I don't know if I'll ever see them.
For our 5-year wedding anniversary, Travis suggested I pick out a garden fountain. It took several months, but I finally found this one for $100 on Craigslist. Today, Trav and I leveled the ground, created a brick riser and installed the plumbing.
Running water attracts a wider variety of birds than seed alone. To document our feathered visitors, I've borrowed Dad's Wingscape bird camera.
