I put my foot in the photograph to give you an idea of how big they were. This was one of the smallest (5-6Lbs) - the largest was 9-10Lbs. And here they are bleaching out (from the sun) in the compost heap.
We put these 3 pretty fish into Frank's pond yesterday afternoon. This morning they were gone and we think a Heron had a healthy dinner or breakfast. The black things behind them on the rock are tadpoles. Isn't that sad?
...and as we were going out of town for the weekend I left a note asking them to call me and I would walk them through on how to use it. But Mum and John try to take a photograph themselves...
