This is a view of Back Creek looking north from Cornell St. The recent
plantings of seedlings and native grasses by Melbourne Water can be
seen in the foreground, as can the regrowth of weeds.

This was one of the gums growing on the bank of the creek near Cornell
St. It blew over in a storm about 5 years ago.

A typical blockage of the creek by willow roots, etc. and the subsequent
buildup of rubbish.

|
This old car seat has been a "feature" of the creek for some years.
|
|
Typical example of the fallen willow trees in the creek. The tree to the
left is a pittosporum (from New Zealand), which are also common in the
creek.

|
This supermarket trolley wedged under a willow trunk and festooned with
litter is a highlight of a walk along the creek.

|
This picture and the one following show the typical situation with the
bed of the creek.
