For anyone wanting to know how I built this pond step by step, here’s the full “How to make a Wildlife Pond” video:

To see how these ponds look when fully established, check out a few of the ponds that I’ve created over the last 10 years:

Must be really great to have such workable soil to start with! I think they built my home on a rock quarry!

[PetsPlantspetsandplants]

In India, you do not have to do much to make a pond, all you need is one heavy rain, the rest is made by itself !! 🙃🙃

[hanna-ceig]

the part where he was taking off the patch of grass is very satisfying to watch

[TripleDDDD]

I work as a landscaper. Currently a week off due to a bad shoulder. Yet I am watching landscaping videos. Good sign that i love my job.
And, well done with the pond!

Me : having a big exam tomorrow...
Also me : watch this guy built a pond & was amazed by it <3

It's a dream to have a backyard pond like this for frogs and chipmunks and such🥰 beautiful work! I actually love how much it's tapered on the sides

[jonaottewell]

Respect to this guy, people don’t actually realise how much dirt you remove during these projects

I live in an apartment in a city, it's all concrete around me, and yet, here I am binging this - I am transfixed by your videos, can't stop watching. Wishful thinking or living vicariously? I neither know nor care.

When you realize how important a wheel barrow is...

This looks great! One of my dreams as a future homeowner is to have a small pond like this for wildlife. I would want to see frogs, dragonflies, crayfish and other aquatic life forms in a naturalish setting

This genre of music should just be called YouTube

[chadjackson]

As a landscaper I can tell you that was not easy work but he killed it, awesome pond

[tebelshaw]

I buried a Rubbermaid tub in my garden, lined it with an old shower curtain, threw in some potted umbrella plants and a small pump, and lined the edges with rocks found on the property.The only maintenance I've given it is an occasional cleaning of the pump. It's in its 10th year and has outlasted a heavy plastic pond insert I bought at Lowe's! I live in North Florida.😎

And here I was just thinking of digging a hole and putting some water in it. Wow, this is so amazing! You can tell this guy is the type of guy who does not shy away from a challenge. Beautiful pond!!

[debmalyamahanty]

Let's take a bow for this beautiful creative work 🙇‍♀️💚

[roseheart]

Even though this video is 1yr old and has a lot of views, the fact that joel replies to every comment is appreciable

[paultsworld]

What a great little pond. My wildlife pond is about that size and has all sorts of wildlife coming and going. The other month I was videoing a dragonfly emerging then a hedgehog having a swim. Fabulous footage at the beginning of the video.

[chelosoyyo]

Lovely. I didn't realize how much preparation goes into such a small pond!

[landscapeallure]

love how the water hose was used, you can really use anything to give you an idea as to how big or small you want things to be.😀
