Wildlife Cover and Water Needs For Winter Survival
The article explains that wildlife require three essentials year round: food, cover, and water. It emphasizes planting forage such as Sericea Lespedeza, Korean Lespedeza, and Multiflora Rose, plus fenced pond zones to ensure water. It notes late winter and early spring shortages and the importance of protecting nesting and escape cover, with ponds fed by runoff informing land-use planning.
Pond Care Guidance Amid Water Shortage This Winter
With runoff water scarce this season the area’s ponds face low supply. If ponds remain low through winter, pond owners must protect existing fish to avoid losses. Reestablishing a well stocked pond takes three to four years, so keeping current fish alive is crucial. Keeping ice open or aerating water may help save fish.
