Notes

Sunny calm day with about 4 MM rainfall overnight. Some seagulls flying around. About 3 large carp swimming along the bottom feeding and many others laying dead in the water and along the shoreline. Haven’t seen this happen before…maybe a natural cycle …or not? I left message with Shire Hall in Picton to let them know of this and hope to hear back from them. If nothing else, it’s a smelly eyesore right now.
