pcbeachrat is right on the money. Sounds to me like crawdads. Believe it or not, I have them in our horse pasture. There is not a pond around but an underground spring and they seem to love the area. Other than the holes they do not do any damage and actually eat insects that might be harboring around your pond. They are also scavangers so if there is anything dead lying around the pond (like dead fish) they will eat on it too. If they are not bugging you then I would just let them be. Who knows you might take his ideas and use a few as fish bait.

Mud Mounds

Snakes don't usually create mounds or burrow under ground. They may use preexisting burrows, but they can't dig them so you don't have to worry that it's a snake.
It could be a mole, ground hog, ants, or wasps. Kinda hard to say without a pic or more detailed information.

It's most likely a mole.
