There are at least 10 different species of butterflies and 5 species of dragonflies observed in my water gardens during the past summer. Additionally, there are 4 resident frogs in the ponds, three of which were stocked as tedpoles in the spring. Also stocked were fish in the spring with similar sizes - some have increased size and weight by at least 5 times at the end of summer! Apparently, I need to do more works next seasons in order to keep buffterflies and dragonflies in my gardens longer so that I can see them often and enjoy them.
