What is this thing?
(aussie.zone)
Found basically in the middle of bushland in suburban Brisbane. To get here requires walking through overrun dirt paths that pretty clearly haven't been visited in a long while.
I think it's just like a series of little cups inside, that gets submerged and filled, and then emptied and record the highest point.
I had been told that it was a flood gauge, I think it was from a council officer in Natural Areas, and I know what a lot of Urban Utilities infrastructure looks like.
Hmm. IIRC one of the locked tabs was bent/dented back a bit. I might go back and have another look and see if I can see those little cups.
