It's nice that people here care about nature and build something like this - we didn't see any special pond creatures at the moment, but that's just a coincidence and a question of time.

Certainly not bad for bad weather. But very dark inside, even if the small windows open. A few more benches or resting places around the ponds would not be bad.
