Green heron spearing a frog  (credit; Reinke) Here is a list of birds and animals John Reinke has seen this year in the 90th Street retention pond with the three lopped trees:   - A group of five otters seen together there all at the same time earlier this year;    - great blue herons are fairly common  - took a picture of one swallowing a large catfish   - green herons   - blue kingfisher  - beaver -  I have a photo of one I took back around 2011 or 2012 - invasive bull frog   - black mink - I saw one there years ago - ring necked ducks  "Isn't it remarkable the variety of wildlife we have here in suburban Redmond?"  - John Reinke,  11/7
