A glorious sight - a kākā feasting on ngutukākā

Judi from Art by Judi Lapsley Miller

Photographed in my Ngaio garden, this local kākā stretches to reach delicious white ngutukākā (kākābeak) flowers. The white form of the kākābeak is even rarer in the wild than the kākā parrot. To have both in the middle of suburban Welly is such a treat! Do you have kākā in your garden too?

Fine-art photographic prints are available from $50, with a 10% donation to Zealandia included. Free shipping ends 31 Aug.

Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

With the government cracking down on gangs, it is now illegal for gang members to display their insignia in public places whether through clothing or their property.

This means arrests can be made if these patches are worn in places like restaurants, shops, on public transport or ferries, and on airplanes. Arrests were made recently at a funeral.

Do you think this ban is reasonable?
