Frosty as well as foggy. Water was flowing near the footbridge which enabled me to take a good water sample this month. I found the salinity reading to be a little high this month. There was plently of rubbish clinging to vegetation in the water and also in the bank edges. Cleaned up several large bags full. No bug samples this month due to the cold weather and time of year. Will start sampling again in spring. This months data covers a full year of sampling at the creek, and should provide us with an overall picture of what has been happening at the creek during peak and drought periods.
