Terry, Kate, Natalie Barnett and Claudia Keogh
The ground and grass on the bank are very wet. The grasses have died back significantly.
There is rubbish/litter floating in the creek. And more litter is visible on the ground now that the rain has washed off some of the dust and soil.
We saw 1 duck and two coots in the creek.
