Friday Feathered Friend
It is not Friday but here is a couple of lovely pictures from Rosa marie who ventured out from stokes Valley.
"A quick trip to Pāuatahanui Inlet today was a wee bit spoilt by the constant drizzle but what put the smile on the dial were the sight of not one but at least 3 fernbirds who were in the scrubby bits leading up to one of the huts. It made our day! There were some very cute little Canada geese chicks in the water too."
