I'm *finally* installing my turtle pond (it'll either be 5'diameter or 6'). I've got an area behind my shed I've piled old boards, and I've put boards along my fence lines. I've seen a handful of lizards and toads, and one ribbon snake but that's it. There's a fair amount of plant cover as well along the fence line. The center body of the yard's fairly clear, as per my wife's orders.

What else can/should I do to make it a better herp habitat? I must be missing something cause I'm not finding much.
