User's notes

One large adult, the others small to medium size. The hailstorm 'triggered' an exodus from the very low dam, the only body of water remaining within the Sanctuary on the Queanbeyan River catchment. These individuals were heading for major roadworks and Lori Gould from Jerra Wetlands recommended that they be helped along their way to the next big body of water.
