Construction of a Mini Timber Frame Pond (Miyagi Pond)

So the wife wanted a bird bath for her new planned "bird garden". A wild area designed and planted literally "for the birds". After considering many options we decided the most practical was a small water garden (about 200 gallons) based on my Miyagi Pond concept.

I figured documenting this smaller version would be helpful in regard to many questions about the much larger two I built in the past.
