NZ Garden Bird Survey
Hi Neighbours,
It's the time of the year where you can help NZ scientists gather data on NZ bird populations in gardens. The NZ garden bird survey is on between the 26th of June and the 4th of July this year. All you need to do is count the number of birds and bird types in your garden or park for an hour. You can find all the information at the following link, including pictures of birds you might see:

This project has been running since 2007 and is relying on kiwi spotting skills to determine the health of our birds in our backyard. Please share with friends and family!
🧩😏 Riddle me this, Neighbours…
I am an odd number. Take away a letter and I become even. What number am I?
Do you think you know the answer?
