Reeds have grown across creek where it narrows and floating fern is covering much of the surface. I have not seen it in this part of the creek before. Hume CC has built a lovely seat/table overlooking the water which may or may not account for the increased debris in the area - a tyre inner tube and numerous plastic bottles. Sad. These people don't deserve facilities. I will attach a picture of I can find out how, otherwise email one to you.
