Friday Feathered Friend
A first for Friday Feathered Friend - a pic of redpolls in Upper Hutt -courtesy of Rosa Marie.
"The great thing about going back to a favourite place is that you are always guaranteed to see something a bit different every time. I couldn't get enough of the redpolls that I happened to spot bathing at the water's edge near the playground. It was magical!
Unfortunately the ducklings had gone from at least about 30 to none at all yesterday so I think that the kāhu would have been working his way through them.
Plenty of yellowhammers and rosellas to be seen too! I loved seeing the Australian shovellers up at the Bridge by the Hobbit sign."

Looking for rental
Looking for my new home
I believe I’m the kind of tenant landlords hope for, stable, trustworthy, and house proud.
I have been in my current home for the past 9 years, and while I’m sad to be leaving due to the owners selling, it's time to look for my new home.
I come with one other and a 7 year old Huntaway cross and a 4 year old Russian Blue cat. I also have excellent references and proven history of long term tenancy.
If I sound like the kind of tenant your after, let me know :)
