The water level was 25cm below my reference point, 8cm lower than when measured last December. At the site today I observed a school of fish, with the largest about the size of my middle finger, maybe a bit longer, possibly common galaxia (definitely not gambusia). At Mill Park I had 10mm of rain last Thursday, and a further 2mm Friday. (Today is Monday)
