You have a Mrs. Perry D. Slocum !! It is magnificent ....

My Lotus has bloomed, http://darofamily.com/jeff/easyurl/pondphotos.htm.
Click on July 28th for pictures. I also think I have a raccoon or other
critter visiting. Some of plants are knocked over, and two of the planters
are moved off their shelves. Also found some interesting droppings near

the
pond edge.

Nedra it is good to be back. Camping was wonderful. So tell me...how do you
identify what type I have? As far as Aroma...the bloom is too far away from
the edge for me to get a sniff.

How I tell .. The full bloom is creamy colored with
pinkish color around the sides of the bloom. It is so
easily identified. Usually, the aroma guides me right to
it...'course mine aren't out in the middle of my pond either.
lol MPDS changes color every day. Looks like you have
a day two or three. First day it opens, it is a lovely pink.

AK!
I expected a lovely picture of a lotus and I
opened to a picture of raccoon poop!

I'm betting that is who is trashing your pond.
If he comes back what are you planning to do.
Traps, scarecrow sprinklers and/or fi-shock fencing usually do the trick.
(With the fi-shock fence you get revenge too ;-)

I don't think it is my cat. She is much to civilized to poop on the ground.
And my dog is no so petite in her work. I figure a dead fish, knocked over
plants in the shallows...must be a coon.

I must ask this question seriously...does that picture look like coon poop?
If so...I am getting the bro-in-law's paint ball gun, and will be doing some
camping this weekend. Night vision vid cam on tripod, paint ball gun on max
setting.
