Nice picture. I recall a pond like this near where I lived a short time as a child. We tried to catch those Polly wogs but called them tadpoles

Oh yes, as a child we have the "frog pond" just over the hill and spent hours there on summer days, trying to catch fish, and chasing polly wogs, or tadpoles.
