Sadly, many of the older gum trees are dead or dying  and are falling in or  around the creek. The only sign of new growth is mainly, gorse and other weeds

A year or so ago a huge branch fell in to creek. Today I noticed the whole tree itself has fallen into the creek and has slowed the flow quite a but but the frogs seem to be making use of the fallen tree.

In the 2 or so years that I have been monitoring this creek I have never seen it like it is today. It was muddy when it usually is fairly clear and it was deeper than usual too.
