Must Have Been Wild!

I've been checking No-Name Pond for toadlet's and to my surprise there are some there. The reason that is so amazing is the only way these little buggers can get there is to:
  1. Go over 2 sets of falls to wind up in the Skimmer Pond.
  2. Get sucked into the pipe that runs up to the Bio Falls and at the same time miss getting creamed by the pumps impeller.
  3. Fly through the pipe that runs about 65 feet and be rudely discharged into the Bio Falls.
  4. Escape the Bio Falls which has filter mats and rocks and then plunge of about 3 feet into a shallow depression.
  5. Travel via fast moving water over rocks and take another plunge over more falls into No-Name Pond.
  6. Now that they are in No-Name Pond, with the water moving fast, they have to fight to keep from experiencing the last plunge back to where they started which is the Bridge Pond.
Whew, these little guys are tough.
