My new Backyard Bird in residential Scarborough!  It took almost 30 years before a 'water' bird finally showed up at our pond!!!  The pond is actually only 4 feet across and about 2 feet deep.  Our neighbour's pond is at least twice the size.  Both have waterfalls and that's what attracts the birds.  Wasn't expecting this guy though.

A birth certificate shows we were born.  A death certificate shows we died.  Pictures show we live.
