Alexandria, Sydney Park, wetlands

Looking across a pond in Sydney Park, a large recreational area in the inner city suburb of Alexandria. The former brickworks here have been transformed into parkland and wetlands. Stormwater is collected and recycled from surrounding suburban streets to provide constant running water in the wetlands. These poles are remnants of an old structure and if you look closely, you can see a cormorant with outstretched wings sunning itself on the first pole.
