These images are part of a larger project documenting the transition of the Macquarie Marshes Nature Reserve from a parched desert, at the height of the millennium drought, to a soaked oasis. The photos reveal a revival of the local flora and fauna – flooded forests, colonies of breeding waterbirds, turtles, snakes and, of course, fish.
Photographer Tom Rayner’s new book takes you on a journey through the Macquarie Marshes and their revival from years of drought, to brimming wetland oasis.
