Thanks,Robyn, it has indeed. I always value your input. I probably would have 
unwittingly tried to stock more fish. I want a natural system that is rich 
and complex and that maintains itself without minimal interference from me:)

By the way I have noticed there are a decent number of frogs, and lots of tad 
poles in standing water of any depth. Perhaps pond situation is not as bad as 
I thought.

Lord, I'm so far behind on all these projects ...and getting behinder.

Like someone pointed out one of the major problems is simply a lack of 
sufficient manpower for the number of acres, animals on hand.

Anyone interested in helping me turn this place into an Eco Village? I want 
to preserve the beauty of this place...450 acres of fields, forest, pristine 
trout creek in the middle of nowhere but within 15 minutes of town, and 1 
hour of Lexington, KY.

I'd love to have a community peopled by the kind of folks on this list. The 
synergism,and the enthusiasm could be indeed infectious:)

If interested please contact me privately at gcreekfarm@aol.com.

Also if anyone is interested, or knows anyone interested in a care taking 
situation please let me know. Thanks. Frank
