Habitat
The river is only just a very small trickle. There is some good plant life on the banks and immediatee verges. However there is also some bad weeds ie blackberries, gorse, which appear worse that last year. There was plenty of insects flying close to the water including dragon flys. A couple of ducks and ibis futher upstream.. The instream plant life is about the same amount as last year. Ita appears a lot greener now. There is some erosion on the opposite bank which appears to be caused by burrowing animals. It does not apprear to be any worse that last year.
