It's called tannin, the staining from leaves and organic material.

No doubt your hard work has paid you back. What a property to relax and enjoy your time in peace and quiet.

🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 It's good to see the water aerated after the ponds ,, I too like the wind through the grass sound and smell, nothin like it :)

Bealy Good & Chris both made a video about a pond so nice I had to watch it twice😂😂😂

Finally! It's all finished. Great Work Chris 👍

Chris, with all the pond builds, have you given any thought to building a small hydro electric generator to power your house or farm, you have the capability to build up a head of storage water and release to power the hydroelectric generator turbines.

I wish you were closer to me!! I have a pond I want fixed and nobody I have talked to even has 1/10 the knowledge that you have about a pond. Chris your the man!!

Like you say Chris, when the ponds finished, with all those white Oaks it sure is going to look pretty. 👍🤗

Another advantage of a boat filled with water is that it acts as a great theft deterrent? 🙂

Nice job Chris!

That's a beautiful field of grass

That flooded boat and the unfinished dock is a crying shame 😂

I agree. You know your ponds. Never would have started❤❤😂😂

Actually Chris, I don't think any of your subs doubted your work would fail in any possible way.

A Visit by the 5 Acre Pond! A happy Mr Bealy, the Pond Full and the Overflow workt faultless!

The Tannin in the leaves darkens the water.

Beautiful. Great video 👍 👍

It's called Tannin in the water, pretty normal in most creeks in the woods.

Great video. Thanks for posting this. Have a nice day.

LetsDig18 builds a pond - it will fill, no doubt about it. Minnow was also included :) Great work on a beautiful pond in such a lovely setting - peaceful and serene. Loved the floaties - you might see a man but the boy always lives within.
