What a treat..........when we came home from the mountains, I was thrilled to find out that Romeo and Juliet flew back to our pond again for the winter. This is about the 12th year they or their offspring have been making our pond their home. In the spring, Juliet lays her eggs in one of the pond plants and around Easter time they hatch. We have been very fortunate to watch this miracle almost every year...............The babies are just precious and it's wonderful to watch Juliet teach them how to fly. She takes such good care of them................. I'm amazed she can fit them all under her wings at nighttime, but she does. After she teaches them all how to fly off they go till next year.
