Bird rescuers need your help
Lower Hutt Kererū Rescue is appealing for donations to cover fuel, food and medication so it can keep operating in April.
Rescue coordinator Hayden James says the increasing cost of fuel is having a major impact. The charity had covered 1023 kms so far this month, rescuing 33 birds from as afield as Masterton and Levin.
Birds rescued included nine seagulls, five Kererū, one kākā, four tūī and two pied shags. The kākā had flown into a house and was unable to get out. It was caught and released unharmed.

Poll: Are Kiwis allergic to “exuberance”? 🥝
In The Post’s opinion piece on the developments set to open across Aotearoa in 2026, John Coop suggests that, as a nation, we’re “allergic to exuberance.”
We want to know: Are we really allergic to showing our excitement?
Is it time to lean into a more optimistic view of the place we call home? As big projects take shape and new opportunities emerge, perhaps it’s worth asking whether a little more confidence (and enthusiasm!) could do us some good.
