Winter Woolly Bird Count 2022
Hutt City Council and the local artist behind Wonky Stitches NZ invite you to join us on a unique bird counting event around the Lower Hutt city centre for all ages.
Don your winter woollies, grab your binoculars, and invite your friends and family for an afternoon of scavenger hunting to find these uniquely created yarn birds. Don’t forget to register your participation at facebook.wonkyStitchesNZ and you can pick up a copy of the map at the War Memorial Library!
A Crochet Workshop will be running during the Bird Count at War Memorial Library. The proceeds from this will be going to Wellington Harbour Little Blue Penguin Study (Penguin People).
This event is sponsored by About Space Hutt City, a programme that places active and creative projects in vacant spaces, to add vibrancy to the city.

Some Choice News!
DOC is rolling out a new tool to help figure out what to tackle first when it comes to protecting our threatened species and the things putting them at risk.
Why does this matter? As Nikki Macdonald from The Post points out, we’re a country with around 4,400 threatened species. With limited time and funding, conservation has always meant making tough calls about what gets attention first.
For the first time, DOC has put real numbers around what it would take to do everything needed to properly safeguard our unique natural environment. The new BioInvest tool shows the scale of the challenge: 310,177 actions across 28,007 sites.
Now that we can see the full picture, it brings the big question into focus: how much do we, as Kiwis, truly value protecting nature — and what are we prepared to invest to make it happen?
We hope this brings a smile!
