Who knew ducks could be so interesting? Once again thanks Louise Thomas for the picture and words.
"Last summer we had a mallard couple that regularly visited us. They would waddle up the drive way, the female in the lead, and come around the back to the kitchen door to see if we had any rice or other tasty bits. I often wonder what happened to them, and how they negotiated the roads, and wondered how word got around in the first place that we might be the local soup kitchen. I was going to get a paddling pool for them, but they didn't turn up this summer. Mallard (Anas platyrhynchos) male at Days Bay duck pond. Bird #68 in 2022.."

The Local Government Commission’s has released its decision on the district’s local democratic settings.
The Commission maintains the current mixed model of representation comprising ten councillors and a mayor but changes the ratio of ward to district-wide councillors.
Currently Kāpiti Coast District has five ward councillors and five district-wide, which was proposed to remain.
The Commission’s decision adds an extra councillor to both the Waikanae and Paraparaumu wards and reduces the number of district-wide councillors from five to three.
Ōtaki and Paekākāriki-Raumati Wards will have one councillor each, Waikanae will have two, Paraparaumu three, and three councillors will represent the district as a whole.
What do yo think of the decision? If you do not want your comment used by Stuff please put NFP
