Fantastic to hear this frog chorus during the day at Narwie West with the banjo frog, eastern sign-bearing froglet, Perons tree frog and southern bell frog! @FlowMERProgram @csumedia #FlowMER #MurrumbidgeeRiver #wetlandbiodiversity #environmentalwater

CSU researchers now have AI tools trained to 95% accuracy for frogs and birds. This helps to inform environmental water management decisions and monitor the response at the wetlands more efficiently @theCEWH @FlowMERprogram @CSUMedia

Our team recognises the rich history and culture of First Nations People throughout the Murrumbidgee and beyond. We acknowledge the shared responsibility of Caring for Country and commit to being open minded and respectful. #NAIDOC2026 @FlowMERprogram @naidocweek @theCEWH

Our team are working to enhance AI models to recognise frog calls, along with the bird species, recorded by wetland acoustic recorders. This will be used to better understand the response of these species to environmental water delivery. @theCEWH @FlowMERprogram @CSUMedia

PhD students Karma and Angus joined the electrofishing surveys conducted under the FlowMER Program in the Lower and mid-Murrumbidgee systems this month. Results will be analyzed to look at fish response to environmental water delivery in these systems. @FlowMERprogram @theCEWH

'Wetland Wander' was held at McCaughey's Lagoon with Flow-MER scientists and local Wiradjuri people coming together to discus monitoring sites that receive cultural water @FlowMERprogram @theCEWH @CSUMedia @BidgeeLandcare

Waterbird surveys captured active nests for Australasian Darter and Pied Cormorants last week in Gayini Nimmie-Caira. @FlowMERprogram @CharlesSturtUni @CSUMedia @NarinariNntc

A total of 1,244 tadpoles were recorded at Murrundi Swamp during the November 2025 wetland monitoring trip. This included 216 Southern bell frog tadpoles. Hopefully we see them all hopping around during the repeat February frog surveys! @theCEWH @FlowMERprogram @CSUMedia

The Yanco Creek system has over 800 km of creek frontage and is a significant area of high value aquatic habitat. Fish and biodiversity monitoring continues for the 2025-26 water year. @FlowMERprogram @CSUMedia @theCEWH

Wetland monitoring has kicked off for 2025-26. Highlights include three large Broad-shelled turtles at Bayil Creek on Gayini Nimmie-Caira and 1244 tadpoles counted in the nets at Murrundi. Great to work with local Mutthi Mutthi mob and Gayini rangers. @FlowMERprogram @CSUMedia

Enthusiastic school groups and community gathered for the Great Southern BioBlitz at Fivebough Wetlands to learn the use of biodiversity app iNaturalist and observe bird and frog activity at the biodiversity hotspot @FlowMERprogram @CharlesSturtUni

An Olive perchlet was found during electrofishing surveys in the Yanco Creek. This coming field season we hope to learn where they have come from, what sort of population is there and how we can use environmental water to best support their requirements in this creek system.

Riverina CWA - Uranquinty Branch enjoyed a fun filled Ag and Enviro day with a talk on frogs and environmental water from Dr Anna Turner. They all even practiced their croaking sounds with a match-up game! @environmentalwater @amphibians @FlowMERprogram @CharlesSturtUni
