David Murray ‏@TheMurrayD 35s

Dr Guymer accepts plants and leaves flow down rivers. He noticed Chinese elm leaves but not the others #badenclay

Defence says Dr Guymer was looking for growing plants not debris at Kholo Creek. He agrees #badenclay
 
Kate Kyriacou ‏@KateKyriacou 1m

Dr Guymer is being asked whether he looked for plant debris rather than just plants. #badenclay

Dr Guymer is also asked whether plant debris can't move up and down the creek. #badenclay



David Murray ‏@TheMurrayD 46s

Defence suggesting debris commonly flows down creeks. Dr Guymer says he saw no more than expected #badenclay
 
Just saying... there hasn't really been anything that we didn't already know come to light so far???

We'd not heard about the plant matter found in Captiva.

Hoping for a match up between that & leaves from Kholo ;)
 
10:09am: Dr Gordon Guymer has returned to the witness box this morning to be cross-examined by Mr Baden-Clay's defence barrister Michael Byrne QC.

He told the court yesterday he identified leaves found entwined in Allison Baden-Clay's hair and also clinging to her arms.
