The marsh is already a success

I went out this morning to check on the big muddy hole I made and was happy to see a perfect little raccoon footprint in the mud. Score one for the marsh.
And I noticed LOTS of flying insects hovering above it and some water skimmers on the surface. Score two points for the marsh.
Frogs and birds, come and get it...soup's on!

Nature takes care of that for us...we have oodles and oodles of dragonflies. I'm not sure why we have so many, but they're quite abundant. And there's always the bug-eating birds. That was the whole reason for the marsh. To feed the critters. YUMMY!
