They are supposedly common, but yesterday evening was the first opportunity I’ve had to both study them closely and get some decent photos. I was watching a tui when a small flock of around a dozen arrived in the kowhai tree, jittering and singing like caffeinated pixies. I couldn’t believe my luck and hurt my neck peering upward, afraid they would take off before I had the opportunity to see them properly. The light was going, it was after 6.00pm and all but the very top of the tree was in shadow. I need not have worried, they were settling for the night and I left before they did. The female only has a red streak on the top of her head, whereas the male looks like he ate a rare steak without cutlery. Manor Park, Lower Hutt.

The sediment from the rivers stirred up from the recent rain has settled and the water is not so brown and angry-looking. Petone beach is littered with driftwood debris and colourful interesting natural flotsam pulled from the seafloor by the ripping tides. The variable oystercatchers/tōrea pango (Haematopus unicolor) are having a field day, dining on tuatua and whelks washed ashore by the large swells we’ve had. It feels pretty warm, I've taken my cardy off. I'm ready for work now. How could I possibly be grumpy today?

The Jackson Street Programme organises a range of Christmas events for children from throughout the region but this year it is facing a big funding shortfall.
JSP co-ordinator Hellen Swales said although retailing has bounced back since the lockdown, money is still tight, and the group needs to raise $30,000.
Swales is aware many families are struggling, and said it would be a shame if the free public events organised by the JSP did not happen.
The Petone Twilight Christmas Parade is scheduled for Friday, November 27, starting at 7pm.

Yes, another one… but this one is special: it’s a falls prevention exercise class for seniors, and it only costs a gold coin. Age Concern Wellington’s Ann Dalziel has started three new weekly classes in Lower Hutt (Knox Church), Khandallah (St Barnabas Church), and Churton Park (community centre). Age Concern Wellington now has 25 Steady as You Go exercise classes running each week around the Wellington Region. From Upper Hutt to Island Bay and over to Whitby, there’s a class near you.
“My balance has improved so much,” says one class participant, “and I’ve made many new friends here.”
These classes are designed to improve strength and balance and help prevent a fall. Steady as You Go classes improve balance and leg strength, flexibility, general fitness, and wellbeing. But most importantly perhaps, these classes are a great way to meet new people.
Classes consist of a combination of sitting, standing and walking exercises, and take around an hour. Call 04 499 6648 or visit www.ageconcernwellington.org.nz... for more information.
Falls are not a natural part of ageing!

Join me to create a red earthenware forest guardian wall hanging, inspired by the Celtic Green Man and Women. These can be hung in your garden or home, where ever you'd like a bit of magic.
We will use my own templates and imprint with leaves and fabric to create the textures on the face. This is a fun activity which looks super and is achievable even if this is your first time using clay. Suitable for complete beginners or experienced.
These will be unglazed and fired to earthenware temperature to allow the deep terracotta colour to develop. All materials are provided so all you need to do is just turn up ready to have some fun and creativity. Warming herbal teas, and nibbles will be available.
Booking essential, contact clpates@hotmail.com or text 021 143 7705
$50 per person:
Includes all materials, kiln firing and nibbles
7pm- 9:30pm
Thursday 12 November
Completed pieces are ready to collect 4 weeks after class to allow time for firing.
Price: $50
