Privet moi tovarishchi (Hello my comrades)
Lower Hutt photographer Louise Thomas has posted a warm welcome to some special Russian visitors.
She spotted four red knots (Calidris canutus), aka lesser knots or huahou, on Petone Beach.
Wellington photographer Simon Woolf published pictures of three red knots earlier in the week and Thomas is keen to know if anyone has seen them on Petone beach.
She finished her post with a special greeting. "Privet moi tovarishchi"

Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?
The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.
This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
