Another beautiful pic from Louise Thomas.
"So cool to see a bellbird (Anthornis melanura), aka korimako, today. I can't remember the last one I saw - possibly around Christmas time, when I snapped one in red mistletoe at Mt Ruapehu. My daughter actually spotted this guy. "Mum, look, … View moreAnother beautiful pic from Louise Thomas.
"So cool to see a bellbird (Anthornis melanura), aka korimako, today. I can't remember the last one I saw - possibly around Christmas time, when I snapped one in red mistletoe at Mt Ruapehu. My daughter actually spotted this guy. "Mum, look, what's that bird that looks like an almost ripe avocado with a beak."

While the overall population in the valley has reached the Government target, Māori and Pasifika uptake is behind at 78 and 84 per cent, respectively. The proportion of partially vaccinated people in those populations are 89 per cent for Māori and 92 per cent for Pasifika.

Items like wrapping paper, Christmas decorations, soft plastics, nappies and electronic goods can't go in your recycling bin. When these contaminate a truck load, the whole lot then ends up in the landfill.
If you have lots of recycling, please use the Council Bulk Recycling Facility at the end of Broken Hill Rd.
You can check what can be recycled on the Council website: poriruacity.govt.nz/recycling
• There will be no changes to household rubbish and recycling Council collections over the holiday period.
• The recycling facility at Broken Hill Rd will be closed 25-28 December and 1-4 January
• Council rubbish bags can still be bought at most supermarkets and dairies
For more information visit poriruacity.govt.nz/recycling email enquiries@poriruacity.govt.nz or call 04 237 5089.
