Last month Girraween N.P. was ravaged by fire. Thousands of acres of bushland and its native inhabitants were destroyed. The local rural fire fighters were hampered by a lack of water as many of the creeks and waterholes have dried up. This is one of the few waterholes still with water - it looks quite eerie with its slowly regenerating backdrop of native bush - and there is no birdlife to bring the scene to life with their calls and songs.
