Covid update:
Last week's Covid figures show a reduction but still over 12000 infections Nationally and 2200 in Canterbury.
There is an irony with Easter w/e deaths being ONE and that could never happen !
Perhaps if people treated Covid the same way it might be controllable.
Yes, it is only one 4 day period, but it can happen, even with all the factors that are normally blamed for deaths, road conditions etc. If people drive safely there will not be as many deaths. Not rocket science.
If more people wore masks there would be fewer infections, similar logic.
Some Choice News!
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!
