Christmas Thoughts
As we all head off to our respective homes ,or where we intend to spend Christmas day, can we all spare a thought for those in other countries who are in lockdown / quarantine and cannot be with their loved ones . Also for those who are looking after those affected or on the front line to pick up the inevitable mess made by someone celebrating "their freedom" and taking it from someone else with their selfish drink driving , travelling outside their circle when they are sick etc . So THANK YOU Doctors , Nurses , carers , First responders ( ambulance , police and fire ) , Emergency personal of any kind ( vets , surf lifesavers ,roading crews , public utility crews who temper their holiday by being available and in a state to help ). Thank You for making our Christmas Day , know you are appreciated and held in the highest regard

Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.
Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.
Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?
Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!

💬 Our question to you: Do we sometimes overlook plants when investing in conservation?
Have you spotted this weed in your area, or noticed other local efforts to protect our native flora?
