This week we feature a picture and words from Rosa Marie from Stokes Valley.

"A visit to Silverstream yesterday afternoon to see if I could find some kingfishers and I was rewarded by the sight of several of them on powerlines, swooping down to grab tasty morsels, but couldn't get close enough to any of them to get decent shots so these photos are heavily cropped. At one point a kingfisher was sharing his line with a huge group of Starlings! I loved watching the two magpies displaying teamwork when tearing at a clump of grasses! As I walked through St Pats, the sparrows were enjoying a dustbath!"

Hello, I am studying for my Master of Architecture (Prof) at Victoria University of Wellington and am seeking participants for two focus groups.

The emphasis will be on how your dwelling has promoted or detracted from your own well-being in the 2020 COVID-19 lock-down period. Preference is towards those who spent the lock-down in Wellington City.

The first focus group is hoped to be held on the 10th of June (subject to change), with the second focus group around 4 weeks after. Participants will be awarded a $5 Coffee voucher on completion of a focus group. Snacks and drinks provided at the focus groups as well.

Please get in touch with me at roylanjasm@myvuw.ac.nz. Please feel free to forward this!
