Despite flow ceasing a couple of times in December the creek is looking very healthy and the park has greened up after substantial summer rain. The site is very calm, happy & healthy. A couple of bushes have died along the path near the testing site after some very hot days over the Christmas period. A number of weedy plants have popped up after the rain. We had a wildlife camera positioned along the creek over Christmas which captured lots of birds and mammals coming to drink - even a very young wallaby with its mum.
