Here's a video I shot this morning of the goldfish we brought home from school a few weeks ago. As you can see, they're enjoying their vacation on the porch!
They are a lively bunch! When my parents still had their allotment, the goldfish in their pond were often just "standing" still, either in the sun or when it got too warm, hiding underneath the plants. Food was always a way to bring them out, though.
I bet the children at the school will miss seeing them. My grandson is going to a new preschool this year and after his first visit, he said, "Grandma, they have fishies!" Now he can't wait to go back! I am always amazed how your different animals all get along and don't bother each other!
Too bad they can't stay there year-round. So beautiful.
ReplyDeleteThey won't want to go back
ReplyDeleteVery nice.
ReplyDeleteShe knew...
ReplyDeleteThat actually very calming and pretty to see.
ReplyDeleteShouldn't there be some netting over them because of neighbourhood cats and predatory birds?
ReplyDeleteThe vat they're in is on our screened in porch.
DeleteOh, that's good... I can sleep tonight now.
DeleteThis is just what I needed to see today. Thank You

ReplyDeleteThey look very happy ! My 4 goldfish are lively at the moment as they have just been fed. (I have a 3ft aquarium in my kitchen)

Yes, they're being very lively and enthusiastic!
ReplyDeleteWonder what Marco thinks of them when he's on the porch. They do look very happy.
ReplyDeleteThose fish sure do seem content!
ReplyDeleteNice they have a home
ReplyDeleteYou have your very own Japanese koi pond! I love the sounds of the insects in the background.
ReplyDeleteThe goldfish on vacation on your porch are so beautiful and mesmerizing, I could spend a lot of time watching them.
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful 'water feature'. I'd be leaving them right where they are. (For the goldfishes' sake, of course.
ReplyDeleteand they swam and they swam all over the dam..
ReplyDeleteI too find this charming.
