Covid update - National figures

Gordon from Halswell

Another worrying week with an almost doubling of the cases in the National figures. It shows how easy it is to flare up if we drop our guards

Canterbury rose from 444 to 667 but once again the rest of the country rose even more, hence our % of the National figure dropped but we did have 223 more cases.
The winter cold and flu might be contributing, but winter is not really here yet.
Stay safe folks.

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!
