The park in drought and floods

The park has seen no rain for many days since we arrived here. In actual fact, the last two months was thoroughly a drought season except for a day or two of rain. The Kambatik stream still has water flowing but the water level is very shallow. The above picture which shows the start of the Kambatik stream has very little water flowing when compared with the picture below when it experienced flash floods. For purpose of comparison I have compiled below pictures of other locations along the stream to show the vast difference in water level during the dry and wet seasons.
