What has changed about the site since last time you monitored? Eucalyptus branches being washed down creek and very muddy What stands out about the site today? High winds and that the creek had risen about half a meter and then dropped back again in the height of the rain on 25th August. No birds present. Other observations: Slightly smelly, bubbles on surface with the fast flow, pole still present in creek. Vegetative matter floating in samples. Acacia dealbata still in flower and Clematis microphylla now in flower.
