Bird count survey - tomorrow! Saturday 8 June
Help us find out how birds are doing in Ngaio.
When: 10-10.05am and / or 4-4.05pm
What you do: spend just 5 minutes in your Ngaio backyard listening and watching.
Look out for: fantail/pīwakawaka, kereru and kakariki
Record: if you see any of these in your backyard e.g. YES or NO and what time(s).
Email: your results before 5pm Saturday to predatorfreengaio@gmail.com We will collate all results and report back to you how this compares with this time last year.
Why do we do it? This data will enable us to track how we are doing with our goal of bringing back the dawn chorus to Ngaio.
Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?
The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.
This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
.
Do you think NZ should follow suit? Vote in our poll and share your thoughts below.
