It was pleasing to see a decent body of water for a change. Flows from channels within the Barracks were entering the Banyule Creek from all areas. There was also water in a nearby hollow just up from the creek which I hadn't reported since testing here. Frog activity in and around the creek is high. A quick visit to both Wetland 1&2 revealed good water height. The Yallambie Creek was flowing and the water quality was clear.
