Last rainfall was 12 days earlier. Again had to filter the water to carry out full tests. Although rains from several weeks ago had managed to clear up the dbris and dead fox carcass the water quality is still at a degraded level. Tadpole activity is still present considering the conditions. Bug activity was limited to snails, mozzy larvase, leeches, worms, and non biting midge. Not worth reporting about or carrying out limited survey.
