Native birds flocking back to Wellington
Rewind five years seeing a rare kārearea (NZ falcon) gorging on a pigeon in central Wellington would have been out of the question.
In recent weeks the Wellington City Council has twice filmed a kārearea chomping on a pigeon. A council report notes that kārearea are not the only native bird making a comeback. Tūī, kākā, Kererū, korimako and kākāriki are all doing well.

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)
