Great news!
A threatened olive perchlet has been found in Menindee Lakes.
It’s the first time in decades this distinctive native fish has been documented this far down the Darling/Baaka River.
The discovery follows recent rains and inflows.

One of our most precious resources is hidden, invisible from view… but today is the UN’s #WorldWaterDay and we’re celebrating #groundwater – making the invisible visible.
▶️ Watch how important the management of groundwater in the #MDBasin is.

Amazing how much attention a puddle of small fish can attract - three species of egret, royal spoonbill, glossy ibis and cormorants all jostling for position #wildoz @FlowMERprogram @theCEWH @NSWDPIE_Water @Gulbali_Inst

How Good! Researchers and the community have observed a significant increase in the #Coorong black swan population thanks largely to increased #RiverMurray flows. ow.ly/UBbl50HV1Ob @LClandscapeSA @theCEWH

Scientists are taking to the skies to monitor rivers and wetlands in the #Murrumbidgee and #Lachlan catchments for waterbird breeding.
Colonies of ibis, egrets and pelicans have been observed during recent aerial surveys.

A huge volume of water is currently moving through the northern Murray-Darling Basin, causing the largest flooding event since 2012. We'll be looking at wetland response to this event in the Gwydir and Warrego Rivers first thing in the new year.

Wetlands in the Lowbidgee are absolutely pumping. Everywhere you look waterbirds are breeding. It’s spectacular. This site shows a track we normally drive on. #Balranald #NSWRiverina
