Habitat

Looks like a fairly good cover of vegetaion. there are weeds and Blackberries but it is not over run as yet. Errosion appears to be stable, it is hard to tell as the bank begetation is fairly thick. I can hear lots of birds singing in the distance. I sited some very small fish swimming around. The water is clear but has a slight brown tinge to it. Water flow is medium. Photo in diary.
