So, this was a rather frustrating week with YardMap, because I have repeatedly try to upload photos of the various elements in my yard and YardMap is unable to do so. I finally just sent an email to their Help section. Uploading Photos is Activity 5 of the various activities that they send as suggestions in emails to me.
The first photo I was hoping to upload was of my wildlife pond, complete with two waterfalls and a sloping "beach" on one side, which allows frogs or any other animals to "escape" and not drown. The pond is surrounded by native plants, which afford either seeds for birds (coneflowers) or nectar or pollen for pollinators. Below is a photo of the pond.
This photo also shows that my yard is a Certified Wildlife Habitat, certified by the Virginia Department of Game and Inland Fisheries. I am very proud of this pond, because it is home to at least two frogs, one of whom loudly proclaims his presence every spring and through the mid-summer.
