Habitat

<p>We have had a spell of hot weather over a few days, today it is 30 degrees it appears the sheep have been finding shelter around the bridge and under the trees along the river bank. There are cattle all grazing along the river further down. There is freshly flatened grass and debrief on some parts of the bank probably from a recent flood. There are a couple of what appears to be serated tussocks in the distant verge vegetation.&nbsp;</p>
