Goulburn River at Eildon

Spent a beautiful day on the 24th of October monitoring water quality and macroinvertebrates just downstream of the Eildon weir and pondage. The weather was sheer perfection.
The panoramas below were taken at each of the monitoring sites with the first panorama picking up on the beautiful 7:00am sunrise on the upstram side.
 
 







Goulburn River at Alexandra

23rd October was another spectacular day spend on the Goulburn River monitoring water quality and macroinvertebrates. This is the second time I have been to these sites and the water was up a meter or so this time around.
The only dissapointment was that i did not get any fish this time around.

Traralgon Rail Reserve Wetlands

I spent three days here between the 8th and 10th of October, assessing water quality, macroinvertebrates, fish and aquatic habitat. As has been my luck this season, the weather turned it on again. For a public reserve and constructed wetland, this system was really nice with good habitat and a number of native fish species.
