Notes

There were frogs chirping, birds singing, water beetles swimming. Lots of water coverage by lily pads with white flowers. The creek was about 65 %-70 % coverage in lily pads. Natural debris such as tree s and branches. Alittle floating algae (looks like Cyanobacteria ( blue- green ) few small floatig mats of algae . Evidence of fishing as the last 3rd of the creek you can see the path through lilypads from boaters leaving their docks. The water level looked higher than last test. Water was flowing very slowly .Water color was brown . Water clartity was cloudy. There were no odours to water standing on culvert.On right side bank there were Common Birdsfoot Trefoil plants (of the Lotus family) and Red Clover mixed in with grass s ,lots of reeds along shoreline . On North side of road from culvert (facing away from bay) there was about 90 % water coverage from lily pads . More Red Clover to the right mixed in the reeds.
