...and so the pond designing process begins. Based on site suitability (Annie lives in an apartment, Vanessa lives in a rental property), we have chosen Ben's backyard for our frog pond.
We've mapped it all out (see image at left) and decided upon a nice little section in the back far-left corner of the property as the location of our frog pond.
This area meets all the requirements as posted earlier under "notes on frog pond design": it is a nice shady area that also receives a little sunlight; it's locatred right beside a mulched garden bed / compost heap, so will attract plenty of insects (this area of the yard is absolutely RAMPANT with mosquitos during the wet seasons); and it will be easy to make it shallow with a large surface area.
See below for images of the site.
