Water, water, every where...

By Tracy

At the Gwambygine reserve today, we were going to go for a walk down to the river-- but instead, the river came up to us:

It's not just the pool across the track I mean, either; the river itself is far further forward, though hard to see in the photo, than it usually is -- and rushing. Even where clear, the ground felt like wet beach sand.



The big pool in front of John and Tim, however temporary it might prove, was already home to gambusia. Amazing how quickly life establishes itself.
