What do you do when you have a flat yard with a path right down the middle?



We dug a pit at the lower end for the pump and to create a reservoir of water to pull out of.

Next carved a stream into the 50 foot area  "double 'S' shape" 

then placed felt down first, then EPDM pond liner and hand placed all the rocks in the stream.





Note the larger rocks scattered in to break up the look of all those round rocks!
eventually a bridge will cross the stream up by the patio door.



The Plank marks the size and location of the future bridge (some time later this year)




large thick slabs of rock are glued to the liner using "POND FOAM"
this forms a seal between the pond liner and the water fall rock. 
With luck the water will dam up behind those flat rocks and
then spill over in a nice sheet


The pump we used is a Dannor WF4000  
as you can see we are getting the maximum visual effect  for that small of a pump
for a project of this size.



This stream will provide a source of drinking water for Deer, Raccoons, Ducks  and Geese






Every speck of pond liner has a good layer of rock over it
to protect it from sharp hooves and claws.





The sound of water will draw in other Song Birds throughout the year
