Bolin Bolin Billabong
A Billabong is a Wiradjuri word that is used for an isolated pond that is left behind after a river changes course. Billabongs are usually formed when the path of a creek or river changes, leaving the former branch with a dead end. Billabongs are called oxbow lakes in other parts of the world. This billabong fills during heavy rains and is refreshed when the Yarra floods. The rust colored water is the result of the surrounding red clay.
