Dunnocks - didn't know they existed two years ago.

Louise from Woburn

It's a commonish bird, but I'm stoked to finally get what I consider to be a good shot of a dunnock (Prunella modularis). Normally they are hopping around on the ground, which I don't think makes for as nice a shot as a perching bird. It's amazing how fussy I've become considering I didn't even know they existed two years ago - everything small and brown was a house sparrow. Now I've got my eye in I can see they are quite different.

Poll: Is the increase in disability parking fines fair?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

In October, the fine for parking in a designated mobility car park without a permit has jumped from $150 to $750—a 400% increase!

The goal is to keep these spaces open for those who truly need them. Do you think this big increase in the fine is fair? Share your thoughts below.

Karl from Alicetown

was gob smacked to see traffic management in place marine drive near Sorrento Bay Eastbourne, Traffic lights in place being managed manually by people in vehicles. and why - well because there were cones across one lane. there were no road works in progress no machinery on road. How many thousands of dollars is this costing the rate payers? Why is this allowed to happen? this looks to be a 24-hour operation doesn't anybody care besides me! Does Eastbourne have councillor if so can someone please advise me they need to say something about this ridiculous situation
