"I love birding – some days are just filled with hope and potential. I set out in the rain hoping to maybe see a few kākā/brown parrots or maybe snap a few tui on the right angle, possibly come across some rotund kererū for comedic relief. But some days are blessed with a little extra and the unexpected. Today I came across an unbanded pair of kākāriki/red-crowned parakeets (Cyanoramphus novaezelandiae) fossicking in the undergrowth, then feeding in the trees – blissfully unaware they are relicts of better times. Hopefully proof-positive they are spreading in Wellington and the Hutt Valley. Wellington Botanic Gardens."

Halloween is getting closer - we will be welcoming truck or treaters who come by our home at 70 Jubilee Road. Top of the hill.

Halloween is on Sunday 31/10

I would like to suggest that to those who don’t want to participate in this event to put a sign somewhere obvious to say that. Saves everyone getting bombarded and stressed out.
