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 have been transformed into parkland and wetlands. Stormwater is collected and recycled from surrounding suburban streets to provide constant running water in the wetlands. Some of the ponds are currently covered in green plants.

    So many wetlands lost in my country (United States); it's good to see how this land is being reclaimed.
