The creek was flowing slowly. The water was a slightly dirty colour. The creek was about 1.5m wide. The water depth appeared to be about 50cm deep. The banks were covered in a dense covering of weeds and grass which has grown due to the recent rainfall over the last few months. Brief showers in the last 48 hours.
