Gone crazy this year

Just taken these picture at least 40% of my pond is covered in lily pads, never seen it as good/bad as this before. Anyone else having a bumper crop this year.

We call him Colin & he has a good old feast on the babies, mind you the biggies in there would eat his wings off he he went for them. I have a scarer which squirts water at him think he rather likes it.
