"Our beautiful endemic and endangered black-billed gull/tarāpuka (Chroicocephalus bulleri). Sometimes I've found them a little confusing to identify as in non-breeding plumage, black-billed gulls can have a two-coloured brownish and black bill and red legs, but they always have a longer, finer bill than a red-billed gull - that said there is also a little variation in the bill sizes. The two species sometimes hang out together as well to make it more confusing. Bird #57 in 2022."
This week a picture from Rosa Marie.
"Here are a few 'birdie' shots while I was on the 10 minute boat ride at Zealandia on Friday! I had never been on the boat, so it was such a joy to see the shags from another angle."

With assisted living, resthome, hospital and dementia care also onsite, if your partner needs care before you, knowing the village care centre is only a short stroll away will help ease this transition.
Care options vary between villages.

I believe that lethal weapons such as guns and rifles attract the same and the idea that a person maybe, could be, probably armed when confronted by police is a recipe to shoot first (and ask questions later).
During 2016-2021 in the USA upwards of 500 UNARMED ( not even carrying a knife) drivers and passengers in vehicles were shot to death by police after being stopped for a non violent traffic transgression however minor, or no particular offence at all. Most of those killed were African-Americans.
Now that is not to say the same tragic statistics and circumstances and strong rascist overtones would occur in NZ should we have armed police as a norm, but you get the drift.
I was out on a ride and found these interesting cycle lane at the north end of fergusson drive.
Didn't hand them to the police, for the obvious reason......they were closed.
Hi Neighbours,
Does anyone have an over locker or the skills to take up a bridesmaids dress by about 4 inches? It has 3 layers of material- will attach pictures.
If you think you could or know of someone please comment or send me a message with an estimated price!
Choose pretty patterned paper to make découpage eggs, then wrap them in bunny ear napkins to create a gorgeous table setting. Get creative with your Resene paint colours.

He says it would be futile.
I say it would mean he would proffer the story that his Russia was forced to defend itself against Ukrainian Nazi-ism and that there was no actual war taking place and no civilians have been murdered, killed, raped, tortured or forced to flee either to other countries or to Russia itself and that no non-military or non weapons-hiding buildings have been destroyed by Russian forces or bombardment. And so on. USA President, Joe Biden has called Russian actions in Ukraine "genocide" and that Putin is a war criminal. I am sure Jacinda Ardern concurs.
I am certain Zuev looks at TVNZ, CNN, BBC and Al Jazeera news and thus knows what many of the Russian population do not know about the so-called Russian Military Operation in Ukraine. So he could do what ambassadors are meant to do - talk to the NZ Government and its direct branches of Government - or get out of here.
I say that the PM or her Minister of Foreign Affairs should kick Zuev out because he has nothing to say and neither should we say anything more than skatert'ya doraga Mr Zuev.

Cafes and restaurants are closing and changing hands like never before in this Covid era. But the rise and rise of Brewtown is being maintained.
Brewtown has currently got five restaurants/cafes associated with craft beer specialists directly or indirectly.
These will be joined shortly by a bicycle-theme cafe.
The adjoining workshop can easily convert your normal bike with an E-bike function. The cafe will have free use of bikes and trikes for kids and no doubt will be well suited for the growing cycling populous as a cycle cafe centre. Of course craft beer will be available along with usual cafe refreshments and the promise of delicious cafe meals of all kinds.
