Tui time
Spring has well and truly sprung - the neighbourhood kowhai and other blossom trees are dripping with tui. This is how you get rid of the hiccups apparently - I'm not physically capable of trying this myself, but good luck to the rest of you. Tui (Prosthemadera novaeseelandiae), Woburn, Lower Hutt on Sunday.
Thursday 16 September is the last day to pre-order my Wild birds of New Zealand 2022 calendar (makes a lovely Xmas present), email me on louise@louisethomas.co.nz or DM for details.
