Good news for your rivers

Reporter Community News

The recent rain and cooler weather has led to a decrease in toxic algae levels. Waikanae River now has no warnings with no toxic algae detected in recent sampling. The Otaki River levels have dropped from a "red" to "amber" level - remember this means caution is still needed when exercising dogs in these areas, as it can be deadly for dogs if eaten.

Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.

Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.

Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?

Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
