Yes!  Keep 'em coming.

I've experimented with floating rafts in kiddie's wading pools, with 50:50
mixes of manure and vermiculite, with a tiny solar fountain.  Worked best
when I finally laid muddy roots of aquatic plants on top of the "soil"
mix.  But unfortunately, still did not draw the bees away from the
neighbor's swimming pool.
