A water garden, or pond, in your backyard will become the focus of all your conservation efforts. It will be a nice place for your family, and wildlife, to congregate.

Backyard ponds and water gardens are relaxing refuges for birds, butterflies, frogs. These ponds are typically small, sometimes no larger than 3 to 4 feet in diameter. They may be built in special patio containers or even in barrels. Water is effective in drawing wildlife to your backyard. A water garden is also a natural, attractive, and scenic addition that can provide interest and enjoyment.

Consider stocking your backyard pond with native fish. They are fun to watch and help keep the pond free of unwanted insects. Most small ponds will warm up quickly in the summer, so make sure you stock with fish that can tolerate elevated temperatures.

You'll also need scavengers, such as aquatic snails and tadpoles, to help control algae. In cold climates, a heater may be necessary for fish to survive the winter. However, this uses a significant amount of electricity and, in most cases, probably is not justified. A better option may be to set up an indoor aquarium in which to overwinter fish and plants.
