Holly, you are right! The one in my front yard sits just outside the window near where I play on my computer so I hear it's little gurgle and watch the birds, frogs and lizards enjoy it too. The one in the back yard is just outside the lanai and is the largest one. It has a spitter that puts out a nice stream that makes a really great noise as it splashes back into the pond. All the woodland critters enjoy coming out at night and getting a drink from that one so I need to add water almost daily to it. The one on the lanai was created from a very large pot with no drainage hole. It had a crack in it so I sealed the crack, added water, a pump to circulate the water (not much noise, just a quiet bubbling sound), an aerator and some 25 cent gold fish and plants. The fish are a joy as the swim and sparkle in the pot and they come up to the surface and beg for water. Can never have too many water features!!!! Hilarious!
