Testing done concurrently with Wendy Furniss's Micro-invertibrate count. The creek is showing the benefits of last week's rain and is flowing nicely. Beautiful Autumn leaves on the bank-side tree, and many fallen leaves floating along on the water surface. A platypus was recently observed in this part of the creek.
