Habitat Survey done this visit.

Habitat

<p>There are a lot of people around today, camping, swimming enjoying the sunshine. The river has a medium flow and is mostly clear except for where people are playing in the water. There are butterflys and little birds flying around. The Blackberry bushes are taking hold along the banks but there is also a lot of natural vegetation. Photos in Diary</p>
