Many CEWH staff live & work in the Murray– Darling Basin & capture photos outside work.
Today we feature a boat on Leslie Dam (Warwick, Queensland) & waterbirds in the Coorong (South Australia). From the top of the Basin to the bottom there is incredible scenery everywhere!

This autumn, we're working with @nswdcceew and Millewa Pumping to trial solar-powered pumping for an environmental water delivery at Bottle Bend Reserve in the NSW Lower Murray.
This trial has a way to go but a good start for lower-emission options!

Under our Environmental Activities Program, we have funded innovative projects that will support the Australasian Bittern (known as the Bunyip bird).
With the construction of wetlands in rice fields, the Bunyip bird can thrive once again!
