Wee Wee Creek is a highly sinuous channel, comprised of billabongs 40 kilometres long, near the junction of the Murray and Wakool rivers in western NSW. Wee Wee Creek is approximately 212 hectares in size with each of the billabongs that make up the creek averaging one and two metres in depth.

Wee Wee Creek primarily consists of river red gum and black box communities. An understorey of river cooba typically occurs with the river red gums, whilst lignum and nitre Goosefoot generally comprise the understorey of the black box community. Wee Wee Creek has previously received environmental water via NSW DPE and the Working Group since 2009 and received unregulated flows in 2021-22 and major flooding in 2022-23.

The creek today only fills in very wet years from Murray River flooding, requiring targeted flows to achieve a more ‘natural’ watering regime.

Using water from the Environmental Water Trust, our goal is to provide suitable habitat to promote small- bodied fish recruitment, wetland vegetation, tree health and southern bell frog.

The wetland today only fills in very wet years, requiring targeted flows to achieve a more regular watering regime.

Supports habitat types including river red gum- riparian tall woodland; lignum shrubland and black box open woodland with a chenopod understory.

Habitat for the southern bell frog populations on site.

Habitat for a range of waterbird species including the white-bellied sea eagle.

Suitable foraging and nesting habitat for a range of terrestrial species including threatened regent parrot in which breeding pairs and juveniles have been identified.

When inundated, supports small-bodied native fish, and was formerly a known site for the endangered Catfish Tandanus tandanus.
