The Hutt Estuary at the river mouth has an often surprising variety of birds. Some of my favourites include the royal spoonbill, aka kōtuku ngutupapa - so efficient with their own built-in cutlery.

Some of my favourites include the royal spoonbill, aka kōtuku ngutupapa - so efficient with their own built-in cutlery. There are between six and twelve that seem to live around here, they often move up the river to hang out on the gravel islands by the Ava Railbridge as well.

A few people have asked how you can tell the difference between a dunnock and a female sparrow, so I've taken a couple of close-ups of a female sparrow so you can compare the two side-by-side (the last one is a dunnock). See how the female sparrow is much stockier in the body, the beak is … View moreA few people have asked how you can tell the difference between a dunnock and a female sparrow, so I've taken a couple of close-ups of a female sparrow so you can compare the two side-by-side (the last one is a dunnock). See how the female sparrow is much stockier in the body, the beak is triangular and pale, and the plumage is more patterned including a white bar of the underside of the wings. The dunnock is much finer featured, slim, steel grey front with brown back, brick red/brownish eyes with slim dark beak.

The rugby gods weren’t ready for Colin Mataira.
Three times he turned up at their gates on the afternoon of July 11, and three times they sent him back. The 45-year-old father of five, and grandfather of three, to all intents and purposes died three times when his heart stopped on the 10-metre line of a Napier rugby field that day.
Did you know? The letter 'A' doesn't appear in any spelled-out numbers all the way through to 'one thousand'!
Lower Hutt property agents are reporting a record low number of houses for sale.
On Sunday there were only 154 houses listed for sale in Lower Hutt.
Last year, there were roughly that number at the same time. The lack of stock is pushing prices up at a time when the market is already very tight.

In the lead up to the 2020 election, Stuff is keeping voters up to date with what’s happening in their electorate, through Neighbourly. Here’s what you need to know about the candidates in the running to be Te Tai Tonga's MP.

Through the Mixed Member Proportional (MMP) voting system, those enrolled can vote for the party they want as well as a local representative.
Why does my MP matter?
The person elected will be the voice for your region in Parliament. If you’re having trouble getting entitlements or dealing with Government departments, they can help. If your community needs funding for certain projects or activities, or there isn’t enough healthcare in the area, the elected MP can step in and help.
