Hi, I’ve been looking after 2 baby I think blackbirds for a few days after my cat bought them in. The nest is too high to put them back.
However we are going away tomorrow and we don’t have anyone to look after them. They are not feeding by themselves yet but I don’t think they are far away … View moreHi, I’ve been looking after 2 baby I think blackbirds for a few days after my cat bought them in. The nest is too high to put them back.
However we are going away tomorrow and we don’t have anyone to look after them. They are not feeding by themselves yet but I don’t think they are far away from this.
If anyone is keen to take them and look after them until they can leave the nest that would be appreciated.
They are currently housed in a shoe box and I’ve got bird feed for them.

Megan Sinclair, the new product development manager at Whittaker’s in Wellington, is living that dream – albeit without the chocolate rivers – designing flavours and roasting batches of beans in her little lab on the factory floor.
It’s called the micro-lab, and within its walls there are cupboards of flavours and scents, everything from cake batter to beetroot, a mini bean roaster, and a mixing machine called a melange.
In this, she can make 12 kilogram batches to test flavours, or 45kg batches in the one in the room next door; small quantities compared to the tonnes pumped out by the main factory on a daily basis.

“He is really relaxed now, loves purring and is extremely happy, although is still on guard with unfamiliar noises. Smokey started off being quite afraid of most things, but now is a well-behaved cat who is newly learning to use his scratching post, rather than a carpet! Smokey loves routine and "helps" people by sitting in their laps when they are trying to work or type. He has become an integral part of a piano teaching studio and loves both music and all the students.”

Summer is a great time to enjoy our coast and waterways, but it pays to check first to see if the water is safe to swim in.

The three boys – Elia and Rumi are identical twins while Sameer, or Sam, is their non-identical triplet – were delivered by Caesarean section in Wellington Hospital in that order at 11.49am, 11.50am, and 11.53am on Friday.
Their mother, Dina Wahid, can't praise the staff at Wellington Hospital enough.

This week we feature Rosa Marie, who took her camera out on Christmas Day. You have got to love the picture of the pied stilt chick!
"Before the festivities began, it was a quick drive over the Pauahatanui Inlet to try and capture some Kingfishers on camera, but it turned out to be Pied Stilt kind of day as we couldn't see any Kingfishers. Most of these photos are taken from one of the hides! There were Pied Stilt chicks too so their parental concern was quite evident from lots of noisy flapping of wings at other birds when they got too close. They were quite grumpy with each other too!"
