Howard attended the creek about 9 am:
* There were three wood ducks on the edge of the bridge (northern side) and later they were feeding up at the northern end of the clearing.
* A white faced heron was feeding on the grassy area in the middle of the clearing.
* There were purple swamp hens (5) active just north of the bridge.
* There was a flock of galahs feeding on the grass just north of the bridge between the main creek and the western drainage line.
