Choice News Tuesday: Bird of the Year ... voting is open!

Kia pai from Sharing the Good Stuff

For two decades, Aotearoa’s favourite feathery showdown has crowned our top bird ... and the competition has never been fiercer.

Behind the fun is a serious mission. Many of New Zealand’s native species are in serious trouble. Bird of the Year raises awareness of their habitats, the threats they face, and how we can protect our feathered taonga. Important work that we love seeing!

Who was last year’s champ? 🏆 The Yellow-eyed penguin, one of the world’s rarest penguins. But this year, Neighbourly is keeping a close eye on another ocean wanderer: the Tītī (Cook’s petrel).

Who is getting your vote this year? 🐦💛

🗳 Voting closes: Sunday 28 September
🏅 Winner announced: Monday 29 September

We hope this brings a smile!

Got more greens than you know what to do with? 🥦🌱🥕

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

Whether it’s a courgette takeover or a feijoa frenzy, don’t let those garden gems go to waste!

Our suggestion to you: Did you know you can grate and freeze excess courgettes to use in chocolate cake later? It sounds a bit dodgy, but it makes the cake incredibly moist ... and hey, it counts as a serving of veg, right? 🍫
