"I used to avoid posting photos where I had accidentally captured a nictitating membrane - I thought they looked like weird sausage-skin sideways eyelids. Then I read that they are amazing built-in bird goggles, so the bird can blink and still see, or even shutter their eyes in extreme conditions to protect their eyes while flying or diving. Apparently we used to have them too - the pink blob in the inner corner of our eyes is a vestigial membrane. I suppose we evolved out of needing them - still they might have been handy the other day when I was trying to take photos on the beach during a gale. Pūkeko/purple swamphen (Porphyrio melanotus) at Waimanu Lagoon."

Most electrical item go in to bin because they have no one to check them. They could quite easily give this stuff to.Earthlink at Wingate. Or cut plugs off and sell as is . This is what wellington Tip shop often does.
They throw a huge amount of books away . Why not give them away. All Bicycles are dumped. Earthlink would recycle these
They dont care about sustainability. Keeping items out of landfill,
i realise they do get plain junk and need to dump it. However so much good stuff gets dumped. I have seen it happen and have herad it from people who have worked there.
