Notes

Hazy day with moderate winds and no rain in past 24 hours. Lots of seagulls and ducks sitting out on the thin ice that still remains further out in the harbour. Water appears quite greenish and murky . Very low levels and no flow through the culvert here. A lone fisherman along the shore. Note: Not sure why the conductivity reading was so much higher than normally found here....could be my metre doing something whacky? Took several readings to be sure and all were high so could be correct.
