This shot was taken by NGT’s Jess Bourchier at Lake Albert, near Meningie, SA.

In Spring 2013 and Autumn 2014, NGT staff were based around the Coorong and Lower Lakes for a survivorship study of the huge revegetation plantings for the Coorong, Lower Lakes and Murray Mouth (CLLMM) Restoration Program. In 2013, just under 900 000 seedlings were planted across 74 sites, of which NGT staff sampled over 50 000!
