The rain was really effecting the biotic interactions at the pond. The vegetation was benefitting because of the rain and I can tell the that the trees are growing. The cottonwood trees have begun to bloom. It will create shelter and more oxygen for the organisms that live at the pond. Also because of the rain the fish in my pond are coming up to the surface because of all of the bug eggs that arebeing layed during the rain.
