GF Trauma

My wife just saw an ibis standing on the pond surround, and now the fish
wont come up to be fed. Not sure if any are missing at this stage, wouldn't
be surprised.

How long do GF take to recover from shock and what can we expect in way of
consequences if any.

Apart from netting the pond are there any other preventative measures we can
take?

Thanks guys and gals, appreciate this group.

Regards,
Ken Russell

net the pond, then give it a week and start with the food.

The scarecrow motion sprinkler is what I use, but if you're in a zone where
the mechanism & hose could freeze, your best bet is a net till it warms up.

These have worked for people

- netting over the pond.
- put in an electric fido fence
- a motion activated sprinkler

good luck!

Cats are not quite small enough for an ibis to eat.
