Wildlife in your Garden

Two strange things happened yesterday - I was fixing my hose pipe by cutting a 1/4 of an inch of the end as the rubber gets addled to fix the spray jet on and it few into my fish pond the end that cut off - before I could get my fish net my big Koi carp just ate it ...... it seems ok?
Then at nignt pottering around in my huge garden it was hot so my front door was open - I went upstairs and a young baby thrush was sitting on the laundry basket in the hall - I had to get my pond net to release it outside it was flying ok - I let my wife do it @C0YBL25 lol
Still worrying about my Koi carp when and how it's going to have a crap in my pond.....with the rubber hosepipe in its gut ?
To think fishermen buy expensive bait the hose pipe end was bright yellow and a 1/4 off an inch in size......
Hose the hell did that happen joey!
 
Hose the hell did that happen joey!
The end that holds the spray gun on wears and it keeps coming off ....so I get garden secuteiers to cut a small piece off Sod's law I was by my pond with anet on it and as soon as it flew off - striaght into the pond where a large Koi fish popped up to swallow it in seconds - usually they spit anything out they don't like......this greedy sod did not ....I had only fed them an hour before with a load of food they are greedy sods they would eat dog food if I mashed it up .....but rubber that's a first imo....

...my son inherited 6 koi when he bought his house. I always thought the pond was a bit small for them, and 5 died one day when he was at work and the pump broke. The really big one survived, but the pond was so much hassle I took the remaining koi to the fishery centre in Lister Drive and gave it to them.

That car ride was funny with Mrs a Eggs sitting in the front seat holding the fish in a massive water filled plastic bag.

You should have asked for some cash mine ate woth about £60 each now size wise I have 70 babys in there too from 1/4 of an inch to 2 inches in size - they however are Heinz 57 as they have bread with a goldfish and fantail goldfish - they are hard work my pond is crystal clear atm - my son helps me with the filter and that , but you need a good sized pond - expensive hobby - plus the herons are always on the mooch for a big dinner hence my net on my pond ......

A quick summary for those who have no idea what @Joey66 is on about :

As it was really hot yesterday where Joey lives, him and his missus got naked, leaving the front door open, just in case the local swinging fraternity happened to be in the area.

He was outside cutting a piece off his " hose pipe " using the rose pruners, when the " end " flew off into the his pond and one of the Koi carp swallowed it.

He heard a noise inside the house and went in, thinking the local swingers had arrived. To his dismay all he found was a baby thrush, sat on top of the laundry basket.

Being ever the gentleman, he hauled his wife away from the pile of Dyson hoovers she was repairing and instructed her to capture the baby Thrush, using the net for cleaning his pond out and release it.
