Pond surface after a week of rain.
Jumping up and down on the steel lid covering the hole.

Now eleven days old, the pond has filled with more water, nearly to the height of the pipe. The light in the forest is an amazing green I can only ever remember seening before in bamboo forests in films (House of Flying Daggers, Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon).

Six days old, the first water to settle in it, following a rare outbreak of rain.
