I've added instructions for how to build a small backyard pond, that will both benefit wildlife and fascinate humans. This is my favorite part of our yard, and I can't say enough to encourage you to add a pond to your own yard and enjoy the wildlife that will visit it. My instructions are quite lengthy, but are also hopefully quite helpful, as I've tried to pull together all the details I wanted to know when I built our pond and started welcoming frogs and dragonflies into our yard.
