A wild possum tried to drink the pond water and disappeared in a big splash.
If you keep big pims (especialy in a pond) be very careful if you have other pets like cats or small dogs who may try and drink the water. They may get eaten while trying to drink .....

Burped up a bit of fur mate .... no sign of a body so I guess its gone through the filter as fish poo.
