Coming out


No, these are not proudly gay goldfish
(although hey, who knows?).  I do know they've
 been hibernating all winter in the lily pond
at the Brooklyn Botanic.  And I think they must
come out of hibernation in stages (?); at this point
they were just kind of floating in place.

    Hibernating goldfish, koi too—I didn’t know (the area I live in doesn’t get cold enough long enough). I like learning things. Thanks for this.

    I love the color of goldfish.

    Here's a fun tidbit about goldfish. If all of one sex dies out, they have the capability to change sex to keep the species going!
