Oolong Creek, Dalton

We have been working with the Dalton Community Association to remove woody weeds and replace them with native plants.

During this work two local youngsters found two fish which they rightly believed to be a previously undiscovered remnant population of Southern Pygmy Perch – only the fourth population known!

While this very small population is under great stress, it is a very hopeful and inspiring find for us.

We will continue to maintain and improve this area.
