On Feb 8th there was not one drop of water in the swamp or a single bird
for that matter. The rest of the Sewage Farm was similarly not terribly
exciting. I have a sneaking suspicion that water was being diverted from
the swamp or the tap had been turned off, either way I don't imagine
there's any water in it yet with this unseasonably hot weather.
We've never managed to gain access to the farm proper but you can get a
reasonable view (a scope helps) of the ponds from a dirt track off the
bitumen road to the north(?) of the main gates.
