Hmm...

The top pond is the one that's usually completely full to overflowing, since it *does* overflow into the lower ponds. I turned off the pump yesterday, because we were losing water. When I went out today, it was the top pond that was considerably lower than usual, and the bottom pond was nearly full. Either someone sneaked into my yard and scooped water from the top pond to the bottom pond (bypassing the connecting basin in the middle which was also low) or the pump hoses behaved as siphons, to the tune of at least 20 gallons of water, even though they were turned off. Weird.
