Appleby creek

Still no dragon/damselflies, robins are absent but two morning doves are picking up dead grasses and flying off with them

Really difficult to judge pH . The strip is quite pink and the colours on the card are more orange. Blackberries by the creek and there is a new type of dragonfly with black and teal spotted wings.algae smell. Wind at the top of the trees but not at a level where I can feel it.

Dragonflies and damselflies no longer visible. Creek banks have increased by at least 60cm, 1m in spots

Stream bed is covered with algae, lots of birds and maybe twenty dragonflies
