Fine and still. Estuary open, low tide. Colour tinged tannin, a slight musty odour, flowing. Some discolouration downstream (see hard copy photos). The photos are taken of Double Creek from Genoa Road bridge looking upstream. Usually when I am looking down into the water from the bridge, I can see large schools of mullet, can't see any nor any evidence of any ie. whirling and breaking the surface. Water looks murky and opaque. Found a dead mature koala in the car park - road kill?
